Anybody else having issues with YouTube after the update? Videos aren't playing, and when they do, it's a different video.

After the latest chrome update (Version 122.0.6261.69), youtube is somehow manages to show ads even though ublock is active and this breaks the video loading sometimes.

On Firefox videos are loading fast and without ads.

I use YouTube via Brave browser to avoid ads, both on my phone and computer.

This morning I noticed I couldn't minimize brave on my phone and still listen to videos anymore, they'll keep pausing until I reopen the browser.

I'm watching videos on my computer and while full screened, I noticed I couldn't scroll down and see comments anymore. I have to minimize the video then scroll.

Does anyone know if this is related to a YouTube update? I can't find anything about youtube or Brave updating so I'm not sure what happened.

TYIA!!

At least on iPhone, YouTube has recently updated their app (I believe the update is from 2/7/24) and you cannot open the app on iPhone unless you update. A message will pop up automatically telling you that you must update to continue.

I have opted not to update the app yet until I heard from others. What’s with the force update??? Usually you get a choice, and unless your version of the app is so old that it ceases to function properly due to lack of support, you’re still able to use it. That’s not the case this time.

Has anyone updated to the most recent version of the YouTube app yet? What’s Google’s logic behind forcing people to update to the latest version?

Well..i just update the yt app and now the app doesn't let me in. I keep clicking on it and it sends me back every time. What's going on..what do i do with this..
