I'm running Windows 10 (I REFUSE to be forced to 11) and Firefox on automatic updates.
I've been having problems with youtube connection intermittently for a while, but now it's suddenly gotten worse, with many videos resetting back to 0:00 in an infinite loop, so I never see any of the video.
It doesn't happen with any other browser.
I am also seeing that Firefox is leaving orphan processes open after all instances of Firefox are closed.
I can sometimes "fix" the problem temporarily by guessing which of the eleven or more Firefox processes that are open when I have only ONE Firefox instance open. Good luck with that gamble!
Firefox has had problems with orphaned processes for a LONG time, and this is even worse.
FIX IT. If it won't work I can't use it. I'd rather shoot myself in the foot than go Chrome but I just took off my shoe and bought a roll of gauze. Don't make me take the next (limping) step.
