(I develop Privacy Badger.)

Privacy Badger can replace YouTube embeds with "click to activate" placeholders. Faster browsing, better privacy, easy-to-use controls, at least when the replacement works properly.

See "Pro tip #1" in https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2024/01/privacy-badger-puts-yo...

FYI I just installed Privacy Badger to test this out, but this feature does not seem to work on Firefox for Android (at least on this page)

You have to move the toggle for youtube.com to red first.

Main Menu > Extensions > Extensions Manager > Privacy Badger > Settings > Tracking Domains > search for youtube.com > tap to update the toggle for youtube.com to red

You're welcome! I didn't make it clear that you have to opt into blocking YouTube for now.
