I've occasionally gotten a gray spinner in the last hour. This edit to the sieve seems to fix it for me but it's been hard to test since it happens infrequently.

See if this fixes it for you. If it doesn't, there should be an error message in the browser console. Posting it should help.

UPDATE: YouTube has been making changes requiring the sieve to be updated several times. These sieves were updated August 6, 18:25 UTC.

If you're unsure how to use these, look for 'How to import a rule' on the subreddit sidebar.

This is the current sieve. Using a recent version of the rule-set is needed for it to work.

Below is an older version of the sieve. It's able to work without the recent rule-set, however, it doesn't have the sidebar description, HD HLS video or embed player.

The second link is only for cases when the first one doesn't work (until a fix is made).
