I’m under the impression that Google deliberately hinders their YouTube platform just because you have ad-blockers. With videos taking time to buffer, seems to signal this, because it almost makes up nearly the amount of time for when ads take if you had to watch them. So since you’re ad-blocking and they don’t like that, they’ll make your experience miserable until you want to pay their service or not use ad-block.

      Their swipe typing is the worst ever and somehow keeps getting worse. It’s constantly capitalizing it but not consistently. And “and” always becomes Andy or Andee. I appreciate it being contact aware, but I use the word and way more listen than I use anyone’s name.

      It just wanted to use Antoine’s instead of anyone’s. I don’t even know an Antoine. I think fully 1/4-1/3 of these words had to be retyped by hand.

        The random capitalization just kills me, and the word substitutions… Like it will display the correct word and then just as I’m hitting the send button swap it out with something wildly offensive

        It’s definitely gotten worse with time. Sinister shit is the only thing that makes sense. When i came from android it was shocking how bad it was. Now it’s just conspiracy fuel
