There is some kind of weird bug with my Firefox, part of which is that my adblocker just works, no warnings about adblockers or anything. I also can no longer see youtube comments, that part of the page is just blank for me, which is just fine. Also, I cannot search for videos. That too leaves me with a completely blank page, which is actually kind of annoying. Still, I can search for the videos in a different browser, then just paste the URL into Firefox and it just works.
That’s interesting, I’ve done something similar to news sites that block you from viewing them and scrolling down.
I used to take one of my adblockers and select individual elements to block in hopes I could read the article normally. It rarely worked and typically I still wouldn’t be able to scroll. Did you happen to do something similar with youtube a couple of weeks ago when they started getting more aggressive and adblockers didn’t have their filters updated yet? If so maybe reinstalling your adblocker will help, but tbh I’m not amazing with technical stuff like this.
No, I was unable to see Youtube comments months before Youtube started their campaign against adblockers, I just didn’t search for a solution because I had no interest in seeing Youtube comments. I have not been messing around with any settings for anything.

call that a win
I do, but I should also prepare for how this solution will probably not work for the rest of my life.
