      That was my thought… I was thinking “I already do this without an extension”, so I had to verify that I wasn’t using an extension that I forgot about.

    And for everyone else who doesn’t want extra garbage on their phone it’s: switch to ‘Desktop Site’ > continue doing whatever else. This applies to both Firefox and Firefox Focus

    No need promote/install more unnecessary stuff on your phones 🤦

    Edit- that being said, I still include no script/ublock in FF and use FFF for yt videos when I don’t want to clog my Tubular history (newpipe fork with sponsor block) with useless stuff that I’ll never want to rewatch.

    I also use it to listen to podcasts/ lore videos without having my screen on when I’m falling asleep. It’s also nice for driving. If you make a playlist and have an ad blocker, it WILL continue on to the next song.

    I’m actually thinking of forking Firefox and making a lite version mostly geared towards playing YouTube content without ads and without restrictions.

      Look, I usually laugh at audiophiles for being snobs, but getting music from YouTube is gonna make your music sound funny without Internet issues

      Get the music elsewhere if you’re gonna play local files

    This functionality is also built into the brave browser on mobile as well (at least on iOS)

    Brave settings -> Media -> Enable Background Audio
