Made several posts about floating videos and never one answer over the course of two years that I can recall. One of the biggest user problems with FF and we get -- nothing. If the developers are incapable of solving this go ahead and tell us ! We can look for other browser options. I have researched everything to do with the matter and the topic just round and round and round in circles. Dozens claim to have the answer but they are all full of hooey. Simple question -- time to start looking for options other than FF ?

BTW -- I DO NOT want to be dragged across the coals again messing with settings and addons -- they DON'T WORK ! FF or no FF ? That's all I am asking here. Am sick of going in circles for years over this...

Read the post, but see no example of the issue. Even went to your old questions that mentioned fox news... still no good examples of the issue.

What examples are needed ? Floating videos detach and play in the lower right-hand corner. Everyone knows what they look like and you find them all over the web.

For anyone reading, it looks like there is a solution in JoeJupa's June thread:

Yes, I think so -- after 3+ years of frustration. Via research I never knew the UBlock annoyances annoyances filter list existed. I only found that out yesterday via your support engineer Ti. Seems I should have found that list a long time ago...
