I'm not seeing any delays, 5 second or otherwise, when using Firefox.
I regret being complicit in allowing these silicon valley behemoths to reach a point where they're indelibly linked to practically every aspect of the average person's digital life.
At least the Fediverse and Lemmy are showing the way forward.
I haven't even noticed bc my internet is only 2 Mbps
Does changing the user agent fix this? Anyone tried? I keep forgetting to try it myself.

I’ve been noticing a lot of ‘interesting’ behavior with data-hungry websites when I use more privacy-focused measures lately.
Gmail logs me out of Safari at least weekly now for no apparent reason, other than to inconvenience me.
Gmail also refuses to deliver any emails forwarded through hide my email. They simply do not arrive, not even to spam. I had to start using another email service for hide my email. (Additionally, every email I get from Apple gets tagged with a phishing warning, which is just petty and funny.)
Facebook sends an email every time I log in (once or twice a month) to tell me that Firefox is suspicious because I use ad-blockers and private windows.

I had a feeling this was the case. Youtube has been painful for the past month now.
Fuck Google
