Spellcheck not working on YouTube and Reddit (and possibly other) comment feilds.
And, apparently not even on this site (see "feilds" above)!
I have tried troubleshooting mode and a clean profile with no addons.
At least on YouTube, I've noticed this issue for several months.

Make sure you have a dictionary installed (not to be confused with a language pack).

If a third-party add-on dictionary is (now) needed for this feature, why is that not mentioned in the settings? Why did it work before and not now?
This is a better link for downloading dictionaries:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/
Download and install the en-US version of Firefox to get a built-in US dictionary. Other locales may lack dictionaries for licensing reasons.
