yea me neither.

i also have tried all the suggestions in other support posts (turning off extensions, clear cookies, disable tracking protection, ...)

the problem started a few days ago, with the annoying pop-up that i have blocker active on youtube. since yesterday i keep getting a blank youtube screen if i open a video in a new tab and this tab will finish loading like 5 minutes later or something, until then, its not possible to do any action on this tab (no buttons etc.)

i only have this problem in firefox browser, edge and chrome work fine, so its (probably) not an issue with my youtube account etc.

i hope you guys raise awareness to this, so the devs can help us!

Google is constantly running experiments on different users. Try clearing site cookies until the issue goes away.

i did clear cookies, as i´ve wrote earlier. sadly it did not help :(

Does it still happen if you don't sign into your Youtube account?

nope, if i´m not logged in, it works as expected. it´s really strange, because in another browser it works while being logged in.
