I personally don't use Youtube (I prefer using Libredirect with Piped/Invidious) but I tried Youtube on Firefox with UBlock and I didn't have any problem. This might sound dumb but what filters do you use on UBlock? I have read that turning on some filters would help with this but I'm not sure.
Yeah, in general, you'll be fine with Firefox and any of the default filters uBlock provides (even the ones that are disabled by default). The issue usually comes from outdated third-party filter lists that try to block youTube's tracking. Since the changes, you should pretty much only rely on the official lists for anything YouTube-related.
Or maybe OP's got another extension that tries to block ads. I know I've had to disable Enhancer for YouTube's ad blocking (because YouTube detects it immediately).
