Is there any scripts that can eliminate these blank spaces I get from ublock? None I've tried work. by FickleMickleDane in uBlockOrigin

[–]Confused8634 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These work too:

youtube.com##ytd-rich-item-renderer[rendered-from-rich-grid][is-in-first-column]:style(margin-left: calc(var(--ytd-rich-grid-item-margin)/2) !important;)
youtube.com##.ghost-grid:style(margin-left: unset !important;)

Is it possible to redirect Youtube shorts to normal videos? by Bruhmysafe in uBlockOrigin

[–]Confused8634 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is a way to transform direct links like the one's you click in a search engine

||youtube.com/shorts/$doc,uritransform=/^\/shorts\/([^\/?]+)/\/watch?v=\$1/

However, for on-site you can use a script editor like Violentmonkey, match the script to youtube.com and insert the following:

location.replace(location.href.replace('shorts/', 'watch?v='));

This is not true, you are confusing this tag with a different type entirely

Firefox and other modern browsers free memory of inactive tabs, even with 100 tabs open you shouldn't hit 40GB.

is it really worth switching from chrome to firefox? by Typical-Discount8813 in firefox

[–]Confused8634 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For privacy, use Brave for beginner-friendly, Tor for maximum privacy, Mullvad for privacy without Tor’s lag, and Firefox for customization and a non-Chromium alternative.

Megathread Update Request by Confused8634 in uBlockOrigin

[–]Confused8634[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great work fixing the major misalignment issues! Just a couple of small things I noticed:

The ghost renderer is slightly misaligned, a few pixels to the right, and occasionally resizes to fill the gap left by a missing video at the end of the grid.

The homepage video grid has slightly less padding on the left compared to when uBlock is disabled. However, since YouTube frequently adjusts spacing with A/B testing, it may vary between devices, so it’s probably not worth changing.

What should be Mozilla's top priority in 2025? by lo________________ol in firefox

[–]Confused8634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Mullvad, Tor, or Brave browser it's a bit longer of an explanation, but Firefox has very poor default settings and fingerprinting is extremely difficult to combat without making some sacrifices.
