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.

    Silly. This wouldn’t explain why people still get the delay in a “clean” version of firefox, or why the delay disappears when the only thing changed is spoofing that your browser is chrome instead.

      Did this happen to anyone other than the one guy who made the video about it? I couldn’t replicate it.

        If that is the case, then it doesn’t matter whether you’re running an adblocker or not. It’s a marketing ploy to blame it on adblock users.
