YouTube’s website is currently affected by a major bug that causes individual video tabs to consume over 7 GB of RAM.
Users are experiencing severe lag, frozen tabs, and in some cases the entire browser becomes unresponsive.
The issue stems from an endless loop in how the interface handles the action buttons below the video player (Like, Share, Save, etc.).
The layout code repeatedly shows and hides buttons as it tries to fit them into the available space, triggering constant browser recalculations.
This bug impacts Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave, and other browsers.
A reliable temporary fix is to block the problematic menu using an ad blocker such as uBlock Origin.
Add this filter: www(.)youtube(.)com###menu
This removes the buttons under the player but immediately stops the memory leak and freezing.
Last night, one of my co-pawlets and chief science officer, Buddy, passed away after not returning home, I found him this morning, yes he might have slept on the job a lot, but he was one of us, he helped scan a few water worlds.

@JustEatUK how fucking dare you lie to us and refuse a refund, one of your drivers stole items from my order and you lie saying that you spoke to @GreggsOfficial but when we rang up, the manager said that no one from your company has spoken to him.
@twocents_daily@forallcurious I'm not a scientist or astrophysicist but isn't it already common knowledge that the galaxy expands faster the further away from gravity it gets? Sag A is the center of the universe's mass, the further away we get, less gravitational pull would be acting on a galaxy galaxy
