Re: YouTube - problem scrolling down the page

Testing today, Firefox with a clean profile will scroll down, Waterfox in a clean profile soon stops going down.
Waterfox has a console "error" which is not present in Firefox, the "warnings" seem to be more or less the same in both:
Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: The play method is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context, possibly because the user denied permission.
Using a clean profile means there are no extensions or adblockers, all settings are default, and I haven't configured any special blocking elsewhere myself, my router has a built in firewall as normal.
Opera scrolls down below the video much faster and smoother than either of those browsers, even with the VPN enabled. Waterfox is based on Firefox LTS so it might improve in the next release.
