This morning, I am finding that #YouTube videos will not play on #Firefox, but will play on #Chrome.
(This is on a Mid-2015 MacBook Pro running MacOS 12.7.5, Firefox 127.0.1 and Chrome 126.0.6478.127.)
Is anyone else seeing this?
I don't want to get tinfoil-hat about it, but it does seem a little CONVENIENT for Google, that the only competitor their browser can't use the most important videos site.
