I don't understand what happened in the last 10 minutes where both my pc and my laptop can no longer open youtube videos in a new tab by right-clicking. I haven't made any changes, I haven't downloaded anything or installed anything new. The last firefox update for both machines happened yesterday between 1 and 2 in the afternoon. 18 hours after an update, I just lose a basic feature? I'm able to right-click and open youtube vids in edge. So it has to be a firefox thing... Any ideas or suggestions?

I've attached a pic to show you my right-click menu. I've never seen this menu before.

Right-click (or middle-click) the title of the video.

Where are you right-clicking because the screenshot show the context menu when you right-click inactive space on the webpage and not the context menu of a link ?

Usually the cursor changes to a hand when you are on an active element.
