greasemonkey VS uBlock-for-firefox-legacy

It's as shklurch said, but you could try using https://github.com/janekptacijarabaci/greasemonkey/releases/tag/3.31.4Fork and a greasymonkey script: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts?q=xkit&sort=updated

Install Greasemonkey and use the Youtube polymer userscript.

If the above mentioned URL rewriter doesn't work for you (I found it hard to use myself, and never could get the rules figured out), then you could try using https://github.com/janekptacijarabaci/greasemonkey and finding a redirect script here: https://greasyfork.org/en

Install Greasemonkey for Pale Moon and then install the Youtube polymer fixes userscript. It adds an extra menu to the site where you can customize several layout aspects.

I also personally use https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/butwhymod/ - https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/suspender/ - https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/togglejscript/ - and https://github.com/janekptacijarabaci/greasemonkey/releases/tag/3.31.4Fork

I thought I might offer an alternative, although I don't have experience with URL rewritter I use Grease Monkey instead.

There's a userscript for that. Install Greasemonkey for PM first, then go to the page and click the install button there to add it to Greasemonkey.

What for when Greasemonkey for Pale Moon already exists?

Extensions explicitly designed for the old extension system still work.

Also works with Pale Moon. There are even special builds of Pale Moon that will run on Windows XP.

Mozilla SeaMonkey still has the HTML editor (and has been updated within a year!)

If you want to test it out, make sure you install https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/release... from there, because it won't show up in the extensions search.

Of course you can: XPI file

I recommend Pale Moon http://www.palemoon.org/ (definitely doesn't steal your data, or tracks you at all. It also doesn't do bloat or junk. In fact it even uses less resources than chromium or firefox) with adblocker (advanced) https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/ematrix/ and/or (average) https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/releases

Firefox 59 & Mypal 29 work with Ublock Origin Legacy <-use this link if GitHub's broken

Mypal 29: click this link: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/releases/download/firefox-legacy-1.16.4.30/uBlock0_1.16.4.30.firefox-legacy.xpi & follow the prompts.

i'm using pale moon and this legacy fork of ublock origin, which quite possibly is the issue.

for adblocker there is https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/releases , for windows xp x64 there is https://archive.org/details/WindowsXP_Professional_x64_SP2

Pale Moon supports XUL add-ons, but there is uBlock Origin among others. Which are you lacking?
