    Is anyone else having trouble with the vid.puffyan.us YouTube mirror? It takes about 20 seconds to view the front page / load the thumbnail initially.

      That’s been a common issue with most invidious mirrors. It’s caused, AFAIK, by google attempting to limit bandwidth to mirrors as part of their attempts to combat adblockers. I may be wrong on that though. When it loads slowly for me, whenever I check the main list of mirrors at invidious’s website, it’ll say bandwidth is limited upstream.
