Only way I can solve TERRIBLE Lag = Unhook, another outdated app showing its age just like this one. If I had to guess the sidebar and playlists are loading with HD thumbnails or w/e. BTW I am running top-of-the-line hardware, on Linux no less, how does an app load 2.5+ GB for a tab. The app frankly needs a complete overhaul. Showing its age by 2026. Other problems I noticed: Shorts still visible despite trying to hide them, Join buttons hide Improve YouTube options, generally pretty bloated with redundant optionality better covered by other apps or by YT updates enabling such options, etc.

Do not give me a canned reply like last time or I will move rating to 1.
