Qt 5.9 is quite old, and it looks like the underlying Chromium (from
January 2017) is too old for YouTube to work correctly.
There are various ways to get a newer Qt:
- Use a virtualenv install with a Qt binary:
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/blob/master/doc/install.asciidoc#tox
Probably the easiest way if you don't care about proprietary video codecs.
- Wait for the next Zorin OS release based on Ubuntu 20.04. I had a quick look
at their blog:
* Ubuntu 16.04 was released in April 2016
Zorin OS 12 based on it: September 2016
* Ubuntu 18.04 was released in April 2018
Zorin OS 15 based on it: June 2019 (!)
So this probably will take some time...
- Build Qt/QtWebEngine yourself. This is quite a pain and you're mostly on your
own.
FWIW I intend to drop support for Qt < 5.11 with qutebrowser v2.0.0:

Yeah. That's not really a valid user agent string, and will probably break
various websites. Don't do that :)

FWIW you can probably do :config-unset content.headers.user_agent

That one is definitely caused by the old Qt, it works with Qt 5.12 but I can
reproduce the issue with older Qt versions.

A blank user agent was the default before qutebrowser v1.9.0. There, the
template string format was introduced instead.

Re: [qutebrowser] bug:youtube
> notification cannot be opened also. Besides what Florian already said you should test, if you're using a WM like Sway (possibly also something similar, like i3) and none of the notifications work, not just on youtube, it might be that you've disabled the application tray, which is what prevents qutebrowser from showing notifications. For swaybar the option is `tray_output none`, but it should be different if you're not using Sway and/or swaybar. Regards, Erazem Kokot
