My wife and I used the YouTube app on a Roku TV for some time, and it was rough. I’m not sure if the intense lag was caused by the app or the low specs of the TV, but either way it was a poor experience.

That’s good to hear. I’m looking forward to trying it out on FF again.

Jesus Christ, what a bunch of rat-fuckers.

Something was going wrong with video playback. Unfortunately, this was about 10 years ago so I don’t remember many specifics about what the problem was.

It probably didn’t have anything to do with Firefox itself. It’s likely related to something I messed up in FF or it was something to do with the ancient laptop I had at the time being a junk heap, but I tried Chrome and noticed that the trouble didn’t exist there. So I started using Chrome.

I kept using it because of all the google integration, which was really handy when I was using the google business suite to run my own small business. I shut that down two years ago now, so there’s nothing really keeping me on Chrome any more.

I swapped back to FF a few days ago and YouTube works fine now. So I’m back on the FF train and giving Google the finger the whole way over banning the adblockers that I liked.

I can certain only respect that opinion. I’d certainly like to port my stuff over here and delete it from reddit, but the community I would put it in doesn’t exist on Lemmy.

I’d create the place here, but I am for sure not a good person to run an online community. I’m thin skinned and don’t suffer fools gladly. That’s the kind of moderator people generally hate.

Boy, that would have been good to know back in 2015, I feel like I let Google hoodwink me into using Chrome for all that time.

I made some good content on Reddit that I’m actually proud of and would like to remain up, so I’m not too excited about doing something spectacular to get banned.

I swapped to Chrome years ago because YouTube stopped working right on Firefox.

I’ve started the process of swapping back to Firefox after 10 years with Chrome over this.
