I have not enabled any new ad blocking and have also not changed any settings. Looking at the Troubleshooting Information in Firefox reveals nothing that is suspect.

Let me boot to openSUSE. I don't do Facebook, but can you provide links to other videos not playing for you? What OS? What Desktop? X11 or Wayland?

YouTube has a lot of formats available and Firefox can fallback to a codec your OS supports, but other websites may only offer a limited set of formats and can fail.
