YouTube videos randomly buffering

Hey folks, I've been noticing something peculiar with Firefox that's been bothering me lately. Whenever I try to watch videos on YouTube in resolutions above 1080p, they tend to randomly buffer. It's quite frustrating, especially when I know my internet connection is stable and other browsers don't seem to have this issue. Has anyone else experienced this problem with Firefox? And if so, do you have any tips or solutions to share? Thanks in advance for any insights!

I installed uBlock and it seems to be okay for now. Will update if it brakes again.

This is driving me nuts. It's not like the video pauses to buffer, it's like it freezes because it forgot to buffer and will not buffer any further without reloading the page. I've tried disabling my extensions and I've wiped the cache and cookies multiple times. I don't have the problem with other browsers.

It's driving me nuts too. I have this issue since early January and it still hasn't been fixed!
