Probably related to the issues I began having yesterday with Revanced- suddenly, videos started to infinitely buffer after around 1 minute of playing. I ended up having to update + reinstall Revanced entirely. Looking at the Revanced subreddit it seems more and more users have started getting affected by the same issue these past few weeks.

Google's definitely doing something.

I also did this, this morning and it seemed to fix it. If it becomes impossible to block ads I guess we all just stop watching YouTube...?

google overestimates how much I like YouTube and how much I hate ads and google

Good to know this isn't just me, I updated and reinstalled without resorting to forums, and it solved the issue for me too.
