Been like this for a long time now. Both YT and YT Music are unusable on desktop due to the lag.
Decided to test it out myself on Firefox and Edge. Didn't get the delay, but did get ads both times because I don't have adblockers set up over there. The second was unskippable. Ugh.
I tested it in Firefox InPrivate, Edge, Brave, and Chrome and all are identical for me. I think they just fucked up YouTube. 😂
Could also just be a rolling release.
