YT, Firefox, Adblockers and huge lag

Narrowed it down so now all i have to do is to clear out the cookies and YH "premium requests" are gone.

SiliconWizard:
Two simple things: if you are actually not logged in to YT, many issues with adblockers disappear. Yes, this is odd, and I'm not sure I get the rationale. Of course in that case you can't comment and most settings won't get saved.
If you use Firefox, opening YT pages in a "private window" will also make almost all annoyances disappear.
For now.
That's consistent with the fact that clearing cookies also helps.

By logging in you signal that you are already addicted and can be screwed with safely.

Cynical and depressing but true...  :(

Yes. That's also pretty much what all businesses do these days, drag in potential customers with attractive offers and literally spit on their customers once acquired.
