Firefox for Android fails to load YouTube comments in 'version for PC' website mode
Steps to reproduce problem. 1. Navigate to YouTube with Firefox for Android. 2. Open page of any video which has comments. 3. Switch webpage display mode to 'version for PC'. 4. Now the page layout top-to-bottom should be like: - player with main video - list of videos that may interest you - comments section 5. Expected behavior: load comments section below list of recommended videos, like Chromium based browsers do. 6. Actual behavior: Firefox fails to load comments section, perhaps some script doesn't fire up.

Okay, as found by me bugreport suggested, I have disabled in settings hiding toolbar on scroll, and with the static toolbar comments do load. So I can use it as a workaround till better days. Case closed, yay me and thanks to all participants of this topic.

Hi
This does appear to be an issue that our developers are aware of and are looking into. You can follow progress on this and add comments at:
First, thank you very much for the support. Second, excuse me, but are you sure the link you posted is related to the problem I described? They talk there about some troubles with media playback, I don't see the mentions of comments. I hope developers really are aware of this issue and looking forward for it to be fixed, but given amount of other bugs on their hands I'm not expecting it to happen any time soon.
I found similar issue reported on Bugzilla, but it is for Fenix browser, which is a fork of Firefox or something? Also, it seems in English interface of Firefox menu "version for PC" is called "Desktop site", I didn't know that. And there's no motion in this bugreport for last 5 months. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1788504
