try changing your user-agent to mock chrome in Firefox while you visit YouTube.

you should see a drastic difference in UX.

I tried YouTube in Chrome on desktop (for about 2 minutes) and I didn’t notice any difference. I’ll just keep using NewPipe on my phone though.

it takes a whole 10 extra seconds for the interface to be usable for me in Firefox. but not when I spoof the user-agent as chrome.

at least that’s how it was about 4 months ago.
