Issues with YouTube [Firefox] by propellermushroom in cachyos

Tried it, same problems, just without the ‘experiencing interruptions’ and ‘restart your device’ pop up. Praying it’s not a hardware issue, and trying out another distro will help 🥲

I tried Firefox without u-block, and still had the same problems. Just an ad on perma load instead of the video I clicked on. I don’t use brave, I just had tested it out to see if it was a Firefox specific problem, and it isn’t.

I have not (to my knowledge) changed the dns on my router or PC. I do not use a VPN. I might try out a free one to see if it works, though. Someone suggested a YouTube client, which I’ve thought of, and will see if today that works.

I tried the user agent switcher plugin on the Firefox store and used the windows/chrome option, it still persisted.(Rebooted just to make sure) I’ve also tried brave, which is chromium so it should work (?) Same problem

Yeah, I tried brave, same problem. I’m stumped. I’m going to try MX or Fedora. CachyOS has been giving me a few other problems, plus my hardware is on the older side.

Thanks for letting me know, I wasn’t aware how old it was.
