I installed Firefox yesterday, and everything was fine for a day. Today, when I play a YouTube video, the entire page freezes - I can't pause it, select text, or do anything. The page starts responding after about 10 seconds from last interaction.

Compared to Chrome, I can play 20 YouTube videos at once and everything works fine.

The problem only occurs on YouTube. Sites like CDA and Jellyfin work fine.

This could be related to trying to block ads on YouTube; they seem to be retaliating if they detect an ad blocker.

No 1. I have YouTube Premium, so I don't have ads 2. I have AddBlocker disabled on the YouTube website anyway

  • I've noticed that tabs with YouTube open get corrupted after a while.

When I create a new tab, everything is fine.

But after a while, it starts to get corrupted.

+ When I had background music on YouTube, after +/- 30 minutes, subsequent songs start to load longer.

So I think there's a problem with Firefox's RAM management, which is especially noticeable on YouTube when I don't refresh the tab for a long time.

  • In Chrome 1, the YouTube tab could use up 1GB+ of RAM, but it's not a problem for me as long as it works well.

I don't know how Firefox handles it, but it clearly doesn't handle it very well.
