I’ve had the same problem, in my case it was that my adblocker was blocking the domains used to track video position, which are mildly tracking-ish in nature.

*.video-stats.l.google.com *.s.youtube.com

Pretty sure only s.youtube.com is needed. It’s the only domain on my AdAway allow list and it works for me

  i’ll do some testing later myself, but that’s good to know. i got those domains from random reddit threads after having had enough of the issue, and i’m pretty sure i tested if either one worked on its own but the memory is so fuzzy i’m just making up false memories. just a minute earlier i was convinced i didn’t actually do any testing.

I’ll look into if I have the rule already or not. Thanks

unfortunately, this rule had little to no impact on youtubes ability to remember video positions

  that’s unfortunate. have you also tried removing the *. prefix?
