Google intentionally slows down YouTube on Firefox by 80% by using old libraries that are unsupported by Firefox because they were deprecated.

@BurungHantu they did the same with duck duck go so I wouldn’t be surprised
@BurungHantu Ain't just me then...

But in the end, this is a a good sign. Configure your Firefox as insecure as Chrome(ium), and you won't get that many captchas. The more privacy settings and tools you use, the more captchas you get.
Answering 10 picture puzzles means you're not bad at protecting your data from google. Getting none means Google already knows everything about you.
@BurungHantu
It's more like they don't need to hit Chrome users with captchas, because they already know all about them.
@BurungHantu are they still doing this?
@BurungHantu for the time being, the youtube-classic add-on seems to help https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-classic/
@BurungHantu google is pure evil
@BurungHantu Not surprised. I keep getting so many captchas when I browse.
Google intentionally serves old version of Google Shopping to Firefox users, changing user agent to Chrome (while still on Firefox) fixes it.
