| Shameless promotion here but I think https://channelsurfer.tv is a good experience. |

| Firefox with sponsorblock installed and ublock origin? |

| ▲ | duskdozer 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | I haven't been able to watch youtube in the browser for ages. I get like one 10-20s chunk then nothing further. Do you use just the standard block lists? | | |
| ▲ | mystifyingpoi 12 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | Your experience is strange, I use the official Chrome (not Chromium) with uBlock Lite and everything works perfectly (except the 5s delay at the start). | |
| ▲ | TomasEkeli 3 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Works well for me on Firefox with uBlock origin without any special lists. Personally I use my own fork of FreeTube on desktops, though, falling back to Firefox with uBlock when there are outages. | |
| ▲ | piaste 3 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Are you using a VPN? Youtube will be a jerk to those IPs. I need to set my exit node to either Poland or Albania to watch YT. (The latter incidentally is supposed to act as an ad-blocker due to local legislation banning some types of ads, but I have my own ad-blockers so I cannot confirm.) | |

| ▲ | DavideNL an hour ago | parent [-] | | I use Firefox (and Librewolf), and have no issues. So, it must be some extension or content blocker list causing that issue? |

| It's not that well known, but mpv supports playing youtube videos. I think you need yt-dlp installed. |

| Freetube if it's still working? I haven't tried it in a while. |
