I got no issues whatsoever. Are you using any browser addons besides uBlock origin? I've been using ghostery for quite some time (which also has an ad-suppression engine) and that cocked up with youtube. Removed it and now I can use it as always. Firefox 120.0.1.
Good information. I will remove it.

I mean they've also consistently been making YouTube worse for everyone not using Adblock, so it's only fair.
Remember when every billionaire apologist was telling us how no one would do shit like this when net neutrality was being gutted?
Not just YouTube. Now I have to say I'm not a robot when searching from my phone because I dare use a VPN that's not theirs.
This is because scammers and criminals often use VPNs. They actually should be doing that.
Do you know the old saying:
if privacy is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy.
Just because people might do stuff with things that isn't intended or even illegal doesn't mean you should be banning said things.
Otherwise we'd be in a world where we have no kitchen knives, axes, wrenches, food, money, cars, planes, ships, bikes, hands, feet - you know what I mean?
And guns.
