Since this morning, if I visit a video, I get a black screen, if I watch from the main page, my screen flickers.

Thanks.

Someone mentioned it on Lemmy which made me notice it, but on both of my Linux desktops it started happening. 1gbps wired internet, Ubuntu and Debian, Firefox with uBlock. Definite and deliberate 10 second pause when starting a video.

Hmm, I wonder if it's Firefox specific then?

Maybe for the moment.
