"YouTube has been inducing a delay in loading videos on non-Chrome browsers like Firefox and Edge, though some users said they observe it on Chrome as well. Google has now issued a statement, attributing the delay in loading YouTube videos to ad blockers and confirming that users must wait a bit if they continue using them."https://www.androidauthority.com/youtube-blames-ad-blockers-slow-load-times-3387523/Hey, Google! Go fuck yourself!

@alejandrobdn I may not be sensitive enough because I didn't notice it yet. Also, most of the time I use tools that will grab the video and read it with my video player.

@alejandrobdn There is even a delay with vanilla Firefox without ad-blockers.

@StampedingLonghorn It's not a big deal in my case since I use newsboat+mpv and FeeTube, but it's a shame for normies. It's a really dishonest tactic on Google's part.

@alejandrobdn It really is. I mainly watch YouTube on Roku. It's very annoying on it. It's gotten to the point where YouTube is no longer the main thing I watch on there anymore.
