LiteTube AdFree - Ultimate YouTube Optimizer Solves the 'YouTube lagging on Firefox' issue by utilizing the lightweight Mobile API LiteTube AdFree is a lightweight, all-in-one extension designed to fix the YouTube experience. It uniquely adapts the ultra-fast mobile layout (m.youtube.com) to work perfectly on desktop computers, giving you the speed of mobile with the usability of a desktop player. Whether you want to save RAM by using the Mobile layout on your PC or simply want a cleaner, interruption-free viewing experience, LiteTube has you covered. 🌟 Key Features 🖱️ Mouse & Keyboard Optimization (Mobile Layout) Makes the lightweight m.youtube.com feel native on desktop. No touchscreen required:

Hover UI: Player controls appear automatically when you move your mouse over the video (just like on desktop), instead of requiring a click/tap.

Keyboard Shortcuts: Restores full desktop shortcuts support: Space/K (Play/Pause), J/L (Seek 10s), Arrows (Seek 5s), F (Fullscreen), M (Mute).

🚫 Advanced Ad Blocking Stops ads before they load. The extension uses a hybrid approach:

Payload Sanitization: Intercepts JSON data to strip ad slots from the video player, preventing pre-roll video ads and black screens.

DOM Cleaning: Hides banner ads and overlay popups instantly.

Why LiteTube? Unlike heavy extensions that slow down your browser, LiteTube uses efficient script injection to modify the player response directly. This ensures ads are removed without causing playback errors, while features like "Force H.264" help extend battery life on laptops.
