Youtube has started to artificially slow down video load times if you use Firefox. Spoofing Chrome magically makes this problem go away. (old.reddit.com)

Gmail is almost painfully slow on my PC (I use Adblock on Firefox). Does anyone else experience this?

And, yes, I know Gmail is very bad, you're preaching to the choir. I am in the midst of switching over.

No slowdowns here. Using Gmail since it's inception. Fi customer with a backup service. We have YouTube premium maybe I'm getting away with something. No ads and no buffering.
