YouTube hasn't been working for me past two weeks with uBlock Origin. Video doesn't play.

Counterpoint: it works, you just have to wait a bit, since now the server will not actually send you the video until the mandatory (pre-skip) ad’s length has elapsed.

Which is fully in their right, I’m not complaining, it’s not like I’m any worse off (waiting on a black screen vs waiting while some bullshit ad tells me to CoNsUmE PrOduCt!!!)

Firefox + uBlock Origin + Sponsor Block + YouTube Redux on Mac has been working well for me for quite some time.

Have you tried "uBlock Origin Lite"? It is by the same author, Raymond Hill (gorhill). It has been working fine. I use "optimal" level for the filtering mode. (Note: I use Chromium on Linux)

Parent should include text not just a link.

UBlock Origin Lite pulled from the Firefox extensions after being flagged for policy violation, now only available from GitHub.

"The Firefox version of uBO Lite will cease to exist, I am dropping support because of the added burden of dealing with AMO nonsensical and hostile review process. "

		There is no need to use uBOL on Firefox, just use the normal version. EDIT: But yeah, the Mozilla reviewers are very hostile, also had to fight with them for one of my add-ons. It's ridiculous that spam and malware add-ons get a pass but privacy-conscious add-ons get rejected.

Make sure to update and restart Firefox.

I had the same problem. Updating uBlock Origin fixed it.
