So I used this and was having problems with videos as well. I tried removing everything after the first 5 lines (as suggested by /u/FlawIessCowboy) and while that fixed videos and removed the app add, I lost the ability to scroll again.
After playing around, I found that removing/commenting these lines:
seems to fix the videos, while keeping scrolling and blocking the app ad.
To be clear, this is what is working for me now:
! Reddit app ad
www.reddit.com##.XPromoPopupRpl
www.reddit.com##xpromo-new-app-selector
www.reddit.com##.bottom-bar, .XPromoBottomBar
www.reddit.com##.useApp,.TopNav__promoButton
www.reddit.com##body:style(pointer-events:auto!important;)
! uBO Annoyances has also this:
! https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues/6826
reddit.com##.XPromoPopup
reddit.com##body.scroll-disabled:style(overflow: visible!important; position: static!important;)
reddit.com##.XPromoInFeed
amp.reddit.com##.AppSelectorModal__body
amp.reddit.com##.upsell_banner
! I suspect they are injecting artificial delays when above stuff is blocked (loading screen),
! if you see some delays, try if this helps:
! www.reddit.com##+js(nostif, /^/)
! www.reddit.com##+js(nosiif, /^/)
! 2022-11-11 20:20:47 CET:
www.reddit.com##xpromo-app-selector
www.reddit.com##body.scroll-is-blocked:style(overflow: visible!important; position: static!important;)
www.reddit.com##+js(aeld, touchmove)

It still doesn't work. I'm using all filters and the page doesn't work I can't slide down to see content and comments. This time they were too stubborn. Do you have any way to fix it? I only need to use it through the website. Thank you.
edit: I can filter line by line and scroll down trial But I can't scroll down Filters can block any pop-ups promoting their apps as well. but can't scroll down
Thank you very much, but I've been trying so hard to do it in the last two days I copied the code into my filter and used www.reddit.com prefix all code But they are of no consequence. The pop-up still bothers I copied every promo pop-up code and did just that. but no effect So I'm afraid they'll keep changing it.
Hmm, the issue persists even with a fresh Firefox and fresh uBO install. All I changed in uBO was the addition of this custom filter and the uBlock Annoyances filter list and now reddit hosted videos won't play. If I remove the lines, they play again.
When I expand the thumbnail in reddit, I see the first frame of the video but the play button doesn't load and tapping the video (where the play button normally is) does nothing. Mute and seek bar are displayed.

Edit: Got it working by only using the 5 lines under ! reddit app ad. No app ad and videos play again. For whatever reason, using the full code block was causing an issue on my setup. Hope this helps someone else!
Do you guys tried subscribing to "uBlock filters – Annoyances"? It was fixed there long ago. Maybe something changed?Edit: Reddit is very stubborn about their app!

Thank you. I removed these filters from my code block above. They were added only because of vague suspicion.

I'm here from a google search for this functionality, and I want you to know I appreciate you.

** Edit, nevermind, not working** Thank you, on initial try of a few pages that worked. Not sure about the duration timer yet but so far so good.

It works! In Adguard as well.

I've noticed Reddit hosted videos no longer play with this filter. Any ideas?
[deleted] 1 points · Nov 2022
Sample link?

Video will not play. Just a static image.
[deleted] 1 points · Nov 2022
Must be something else. It's broken even without these filters. Surprisingly it works fine in mobile emulation on desktop.
toddmp 1 points · Nov 2022
Got it. If I turn off ubo totally it works. Some other filter must be borking it.
[deleted] 1 points · Nov 2022
On my side it was my personal filter list. Probably anti-RPAN filter.
[deleted] 1 points · Dec 2022
Hey, I'm having this problem too. Did you determine which filter was causing this?

None of this works for me.

It works, thank you very much. I hope they don't change it I can use the select mode of uBlock origin and copy the code and paste it into the filter?
[deleted] 1 points · Nov 2022
You can copy-paste the whole code block into "My filters".

For some reason, if I use this, videos hosted on reddit no longer play (but the pop-up goes away). I use Kiwi browser; old reddit view.
[deleted] 2 points · Dec 2022
Wait, what? You are using old Reddit on mobile and above filters? Why? Unusual setup. Will try in a moment.
Works fine. I see a standard browser control bar.
[deleted] 1 points · Dec 2022
Oops, it's not old.reddit, it's just the mobile site for reddit.com. Thanks for trying, apologies for the confusion.
[deleted] 1 points · Dec 2022
Sorry, cannot help. Works fine in Firefox, even with above filters. Kiwi is not supported.
It can break if you use anti-RPAN filters from sub wiki.

Thanks for your replies. I was considering switching to Firefox anyway, so I'll do that. Cheers.
