I use youtube without logging in, and it runs normally. If I use a private window, that's when I get a delay when loading videos.

Once you start watching videos, you still get recommendations based on your viewing even if not logged in. As long as I don't clear my cookies, I basically get the content I'm interested in.

I block all third-party cookies, but I do want some basic functionality out of the internet.
