Yeah, they're trying new things again. Gotta squeeze that stone for all the blood that's in it.

One of my accounts has been getting a long delay before the video starts. Pre-roll ads are trying to load and play but the add-ons I have installed are still stopping them from completely succeeding. For now.

I also have auto-play turned off, and I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

Pretty sure the systems at their side think that I'm seeing the ads because I've had pop-ups during the delay offering free Premium.
