Search giant says delays not specific to any browser – just those evading advert breaks. YMMV

    What about sponsor block?

      Freetube has Sponsorblock built-in.

        Most of the channels I watch with inline sponsor roll from the creator, they do a good job, and I am entertained by it.

          Obtrusive ads are frustrating.

          Perfectly integrated, entertaining, on-brand ads from creators I appreciate? No problem.

          You have the option to disable sponsorblock in freetube.
