  YT does a lot of sneaky sneaky stuff. My Firefox constantly lagged on YT pages until one day I installed UserAgent-Switcher and pretended I was a Chrome. The lag went away.

  And no it doesn’t work now.

  That’s some procrastination going on. Sometimes you should force yourself to start doing something for a minute or so and things will eventually change.

  It still depends. I live in China and the internet here suckass. Every copy-to-China product, say taobao(Amazon), xianyu(eBay), Alipay(PayPal), WeChat(instant msg), etc. is crucial to your daily usage and mandatories an application. The API is closed and the webapp has no functionality other than a banner with “go fuck our mobile app”.
