I am a premium member but over the last week or so my YouTube videos suddenly started to take an eternity (5-10 seconds) to start playing when they were near instant before. Does YouTube assume I have an ad blocker? I have no Chrome Extensions and no deliberately installed Ad Blockers on Win 11. Going to play around with it tomorrow to see if I can determine what is going on.
