YouTube is flagging the Enhancer for YouTube extension (Firefox) as an adblocker even when the adblock functionality is not enabled. I'm now getting pop-ups which block me from watching whenever I have the extension enabled. Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Edit: The extension has been updated, and this issue seems to have been fixed!

Thank you Maxime RF!

I have this with chrome but not Firefox. Real shame, very useful plugin.

the fix is to download and use Freetube instead

I've heard of Freetube but don't know much about it. I take it it's a desktop application for watching YouTube? Does it have most of the features that Enhancer for YouTube does?

These are the ones I use most:

  • Autoselect playback quality
  • Scroll mousewheel to control playback speed
  • Shorts redirect
  • Disable autoplay
  • Volume boost

Do you know if Freetube has these?
