This delay isn't exclusive to Firefox, it's in any browser where a user has enabled adblockers including in Chrome. Disable the adblocker and this delay magically go away. This was done on purpose.

For anyone confused with the title:

YouTube is blaming the 'Firefox delay', that people been talking about, on adblockers.

Maybe it's just me.. English is not my first language so that might be it. I really struggled to understand what it said.

It is my first, and I definitely had to read it twice to make sure that I understood. It is definitely not you, but the awkward way they worded the title.

Yours is much clearer, in my opinion.
