It is incredible how many addons I need to make YouTube usable. Here's my list (all Firefox):

- uBlock Origin - ad block

- SponsorBlock - to skip in video ads (some other nice features like highlights too)

- YouTube Row Fixer - for the tiles to adjust to the window

- Return YouTube Dislike - self explanatory

- YouTube No Translation - thanks for the suggestion!

BlockTube is a must - can block specific channels from showing up, videos with "Journaling" and "changed my life", hide videos watched over 50%, etc.

Enhancer for Youtube is also super useful: disable shorts entirely, autoplay next only on playlists, tweak number of videos per row, default playback speed, default theater mode, etc.

As another commenter said, Youtube is one of those sites that really requires multiple plugins to be useful :/

Also DeArrow to replace clickbait titles and thumbnails with more relevant ones.

I use BlockTube. If channels advertise that their content is trash via clickbait thumbnails and video titles, I can get rid of them once and for all.

Also "Enhancer for Youtube" which allows

- Hiding Reels

- Setting a default playback speed

I can't watch without enhancer anymore. I always have my mousewheel on the speed control to regulate the pacing myself, because most people can't pace. Also, when I am looking for a specific second long clip in an hour long video, it is very helpful that I can set the speed to something like 8x.
