I have an issue with firefox nightly: https://imgur.com/a/u22dKez It opens youtube video in tab instead of youtube app. But if I refresh the youtube page youtube app pops up.

I tried tuning off and on "open links in app". I have the newest firefox nightly app. My Phone is huawei P40 pro.

Im dumb... I just realized addon "video background play fix" causes this trouble. Tuning off the addon fixed the issue. Maybe it will help other people experiencing this kind of problem.

Hi,

Thank you for helping test future versions of Firefox for Android. I recommend that you file a bug report. See File a bug report or feature request for Mozilla products for details.

Actually the problem occurs when I use ublock or adguard. Probably one of the ad filters blocks opening youtube links in app. Do you have an idea what could be causing this problem?
