I recently switched to Librewolf from Firefox. On Firefox, thanks to addons, I never saw YouTube ads. Now I see them everywhere, all the time, thanks to Librewolf. What’s going on and how does one change that? It’s up to date and it won’t let me install any add ons or plugins.

Ublock origin likely is missing.

You’ll need to describe “won’t let me install” more.

LibreWolf comes with uBlock Origin. Your LW installation came without it ? Can you give more details ?

Sounds like something is fucky with your install, sponsorblock and noscript were day-1 addons to librewolf for me.

what?

just install the plugins like normal. Why does it not work, what is the error?

A mozilla root certificate that signs extensions just expired. You need to update to the latest version.

I had the same and noticed I was still on v121.0, so I downloaded v136.0 from tge official LibreWolf site and my plugins came back.
