This is, of course, an exaggeration of the both of them. Each has its own use case in which it performs better than the alternative. In truth, I use ubo as much as I use reader view :)

      But damn do more people need actual subtitles rather than the basic speech to text version, shit’s rough man

        The speech to text is basically perfect, the problem is YouTube’s choice to have to presented in the awful way they do. If they just looked like regular subtitles, I’d leave them on.

      Don’t you? I always watch movies and play games with subtitles as well. Granted, English isn’t my native language. I would not do that in my native language.

        You missed my joke, but that’s okay, I’ll explain it, I guess. OP said that they don’t use uBlock and that people who use it are “virgins” (no offense taken). I made a dig on them, as to how they’re watching videos in Firefox’s reading mode - by reading the subtitles?
