I've never had an issue with Firefox
I like being logged in because I like to track what I've watched. So it's annoying to lose that when logging out. It'd be nice to have an extension that provides watch history independently of YouTube, so that I don't need to login.
at time of writing, this says NO, but according to the text, "uBlock Origin could still work on YouTube. Not all YT updates are targeted against uBO's solutions." so shouldn't it say MAYBE?

So that definitely seems to be the case according to everything except the "NO"

The blocking per se works.

Firefox doesn't give me issues while logged out. But I've been blocked whilst logged in. Usually a uBlock update is available or I clear my caches and that fixes it.

My current work-around is https://deturl.com/ and then click 'clean viewer'. Changing a video URL from www.youtube.com to www.pwnyoutube.com redirects there. Example https://www.pwnyoutube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
I guess YouTube could always block that domain from embedding videos, but if the extension allowed the user to set a custom domain from /etc/hosts, I'm not sure Google could stop it unless they forbid embedding on hosts that resolve to loopback address.

javascript:void(location.href='https://deturl.com/play.php?v='+location.href.split('=')[1])
when you're on a yt video click it and it will redirect using the id
If I see an ad I just close YT for the rest of the day.
