Youtube won't load properly
So about a few hours ago, going to youtube and opening any video would result in this screen: (https://imgur.com/a/dCV3d). Refreshing the page would load it properly, but then I wouldn't be able to click on anything. I did a full firefox reinstall, refresh, update my system (macOS High Sierra 10.13.3) and deleted youtube cookies. Deleting youtube cookies solved the problem, but it reappeared as soon as I logged into youtube with my account again. The site works fine in both Safari and Chrome, and I have no idea what could be causing the problem.

Tried all of these, no luck.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
