Sometimes they even show an “Experiencing interruptions?” popup just to be extra dickheads. I am patient, I can wait.

It’s why there’s like a second or two of a delay before the video plays when I watch on a browser with uBO. The connection isn’t slow, they’re just purposely slowing it down.

When they say ‘faster playback speeds’ they don’t mean faster connection speeds, they mean watching at 1.5x normal speed (or faster).
