As well as uBlock Origin, Sponsorblock and BlockTube.

Sadly I can't find Sponsorblock and BlockTube in the Firefox addon store (Android).

You have to use a custom add-on collection and Firefox Beta because Mozilla restricts which add-ons you can use

For this ridiculousness alone I quit Firefox. They absolutely do not care about their users. They also have been pushing a lot of shady things, like running experiments and tracking by default. And ff for Android still doesn't have printing, 5 years after requesting to add it BACK

I'm curious to know what's your usecase for BlockTube

Removing clickbait channels, foreign language channels, livestreams, channels I dislike, and whatever Youtube keeps recommending me over and over no matter how many times I hit "not interested"
