"Experiencing interruptions? Find out why."

Thanks, fuckface, I know why.

Sometimes videos take like 2-3 seconds to start playing. That's it.

Corporations arent people. Stop it.

naw.. its not a problem if you just dont use that shitty service. you have a choice.

Several open source "pipe"-based apps all have no such issue.

I'm having decent luck with ublock

Increasingly difficult to find sympathy for folks still clinging to Facebork, Shitter, and SpewTube.

Either swallow your dignity and eat the ad slop or stop using the services you hate so much. But I can only spare so much concern for someone who keeps going back to stick their dicks into the blender.

Don't link to PieFed.

Jokes on Google, I used pre-Google YouTube when videos always buffered. Makes no difference to me.

revanced still works for me on mobile

Firefox + uBlock origin + sponsorblock. Works great, but maybe I'm just lucky!

Every time mine breaks, I just clear the adblock cache and everything works again perfectly

Signed in to YouTube, Orion browser on iOS, ublock origin installed.

Shorts play routinely without fail, but ads are not suppressed. Long form videos initially load black but refreshing right after page load makes the video play. No ads are shown in long form videos.

Hope this helps.

On my devices, with vpn and Adblockers, all I get is "sign in to view" so I haven’t seen anything on YouTube in months.
