Well, it only took them 40-odd years to deal with a hugely exploited loophole. Thanks for keeping us safe, FDA.

"It happens all the time" and "they always do *" is also comically unhelpful and useless. I'm getting a pot/kettle vibe from those that seem to take offense at my comment.

I also use FF solely and have no slowdowns on YT. I guess they like my copy of the browser.

I'm sorry but I don't see how that check is browser-specific. Is that part happening on the browser side?

Nobody can even state that it's actually happening "for competitive browsers" as even Chrome users are reporting an unexplained lag/slowdown. At this point, it's just wild speculation and bandwagoning.

If 19 brings instance blocking, perhaps 20 will bring platform blocking and we can just erase it all from our view.

I chose not to wait. Greasemonkey script for blocking on desktop, Connect app for blocking on phone.

Freetube and fuckem.

I use a greasemonkey script for desktop and the Connect app on my phone to block instances. If I remember correctly, I think someone told me that instance blocking was coming in the .19 update.

Wikipedia said:

Estimates from 2021 suggest that of the entire U.S. population (332 million) about 63% is Christian (210 million).

12k just doesn't seem like a newsworthy amount.

You should post this to more groups. You're dominating the front page.
