Hi! There is a bug. YouTube History is not saved when i use Firefox as browser. So I deleted it and then reinstalled it, logged in to it and played videos from YouTube again. Then i checked again the history and saw that it was saving. Later without any changes in Firefox settings (including addons), the problem began starting again. I still don't understand why it is happening. The addons that i have installed are: Kaspersky Protection, Malwarebytes, uBlock Origin and Privacy Pass. This problem doesn't happen when i use Chrome Browser with same extensions.

I found the problem and there was an Add-on causing this. It was "uBlock Origin". When I enable it Youtube history and also video progress bar is not saved. After i disable it, everything work fine.

Thank you for showing me the way how to fix this.

Please kindly someone report this issue to the developer of this Add-on

First, let's start with checking the bookmarks/history file.

[v57+] Places Maintenance is built into Firefox.

Type about:support<enter> in the address bar.

You will find Places Database near the bottom. Press the Verify Integrity button.

When done, copy and post the results here.

Okay, that looks good. Have you had any problem with bookmarks? Try adding or changing something. Then restart the browser.

After the above, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Got to YouTube and jump around a few pages. After, Close Firefox. Now open it again in Safe Mode. Are the YouTube links recorded?

Now Close Firefox and open it again Normally. Is the problem still there?

From Menu Bar > Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled Fixed this problem but don't if it is temporary or not. For now all the Add-ons are Disabled, I will add them one by one to see which of them cause this issue.

So, for now the progress bar in "https://www.youtube.com/feed/history" is showing up exactly. Before it was't either the video.
