Edit: Apparently, it was caused by me being logged into YouTube. But I would really like to be. Because that's where all my subscriptions are. If anyone knows of a way to have it both ways, please let me know.

Edit' : It was my Ghostery extension that was causing ruckus. I don't really like the idea of having to switch it off but at least it's nice to know the cause. Anyway, everything is working now. Even when I am logged in ^^

As for the link shortening to remove tracking

Bro wtf get out of my mind, How in God's name did you answer a question I forgot to ask!
If I may ask, do you know of a megathread of the popular filters/lists to ublock origin ? they don't provide one on their subreddit

Link shortening is part of DDGPE so I mentioned it.

I don't know about any megathread or the like, but enabling the already provided lists in the setting should do most of the work. (If someone knows one I'd appreciate a link) If you need specific features like more cookie banner removals or blocking of youtube shorts, searching directly is good enough to get what you want.
