Youtube says I'm blocking ads

Suddenly when I try to go on Youtube, I get messages that I'm blocking ads. I'm on a Mac-mini using X El Capitan V10.11.6, which is the highest I can upgrade to. I'm using Firefox Browser 78.15 (64-bit) and info shows it's up to date. My old Safari browser still will work with Youtube, but Foxfire is my go-to browser.

That has been an issue for some weeks and youtube apparently keeps changing how it works. There is an ongoing thread on Reddit (first link below). In the second link, a user script is mentioned; to use that you have to install Greasemonkey or one of the other monkey extensions. (You need to remove the blank space in the Reddit links.)

You can check for issues with Enhanced Tracking Protection. Firefox shows a purple shield instead of a gray shield at the left end of the location/address bar in case Enhanced Tracking Protection is blocking content.

  • click the shield icon for more detail and possibly disable the protection

You can check the Web Console for relevant-looking messages like blocked content.
