Sup with youtube?

They seem to be crawling lately. From my phone, from my computer, from the work computer. It locks up on videos, takes forever to buffer, and just plain old sucks.

I know it's not my Internet connection, as I can stream netflix in HD from multiple devices without interruption.

Anyone else having an issue?

Nope. Occasionally it'll be slower than usual, but that can be any number of things. Most of the time the site works just fine, though.

I notice it's a bit off and on with the slow loading. I have noticed that videos that are put up by companies like vevo never seem to have any problems at all though. Might be throttling the bandwidth.

Youtube died to me when it started advertising before videos.

Same here, such a bummer. You used to be able to click refresh to skip the ad, but now they even stopped that little hack from working.

Get the divx greesemonkey script, then there is a little button below the video, click it and it plays in divx without ads.

HELL YES
I've been getting frustrated and disgusted
to the point where if I come across a YouTube link, I just skip it unless I REALLY REALLY want to see it.

The troll-to-constructive-poster ratio finally reached critical mass and the servers exploded in a massive burst of flame. It should have happened earlier.

Yeah, it's been lagging. I thought it was just my connection being bad or something. I guess that's kind of a relief.
