Firefox users are reporting an 'artificial' load time on YouTube videos. YouTube says it's part of a plan to make people who use adblockers "experience suboptimal viewing, regardless of the browser they are using."

In the relatively rare cases that I watch stuff on twitch, I usually watch the VODs. Don't have the time or energy to sit though hours of a stream in one sitting, nor am I usually able to catch one live, nor do I like feeling like I'll miss something if I have to leave early, so I prefer to just watch the recordings of them at my own pace over multiple sessions.
