I want to make a playlist with some livesets, these are usually an hour. I have added these into a playlist and I cannot for the life of me stop YouTube from continuing halfway where I once stopped some of them.

Starting from the beginning and letting it play for 10 seconds, pressing on the timeline at the start a few times. Nothing works.

At this point disabling the option of automatic saving / continuing is fine but I can’t find and options whatsoever.

Am I dumb or is YouTube just stupid?

    Can I ask what you recommend? I just have the standard add block and sponsor block running which definitely helps but the user experience could definitely be better.

      Enhancer for YouTube is the best. Next get YouTube Search Fixer so your searches only show search results instead of previously viewed, For You, and all the other garbage that you have to sift through. Shorts Block is also nice, but I think enhancer also does this.

      If you have an Android phone, use ReVanced to patch the YouTube app.

      If you have an Android TV, use SmartTube.

        When I watch YouTube, which isn’t often, I use Firefox on Android instead of the app. Ublock seems to kill all the ads, still

          Yes, but ReVanced also skips sponsorships embedded in videos. You can also do that on Firefox by installing SponsorBlock.

      Sponsorblock. Shorts blocker. UBlock Origin. Multiple Container tabs and stick it in its own container.
