Yeah, I’ve had that issue when using Chrome on iOS for iPhone, iPad doesn’t seem as slow to load by comparison. I tried clearing my cache in Chrome but that made no difference.

Same here. I thought it was just me and something to do with the increased pressure on domestic broadband due to the coronavirus. I'm using Chrome on a Windows 10 PC.

I noticed this as well but mainly on the HQ 60fps videos, otherwise the low quality clips seem to play alright without buffering.

I do wish there was a quality setting on the video playback

I think I've said this before but I can't help but wonder if their MP4 files do not use the 'Fast Start' option for internet streaming.

No wonder why videos take like 20 years to load.
It's definitely on the server side. It is slow as hell on my iPad too.

Yikes, I haven't seen speeds like that since 2003.

Anyone’s video been slow and buffering lately or is just me?
