            Turning off my adblocker, and instead using operagx built in adblocker worked for me

              Youtube and only youtube is extremely laggy and only on opra. this lag is on everything, clicking, pausing, typing you get the idea. i tried switching the flag thing which worked for a little bit but it went back to being laggy right after.

                So I have been using Opera GX for more than 2 years and
                Today I faced a big issue where my YouTube is Lagging Whenever I play and video and this is the case with only YouTube, not any other streaming platform

                  @dreamerx I dont think it is a problem with Opera GX as I have never come accross any problems when trying to watch youtube or any other website, i think it is just a glitch.

                    I have after updating to 106.0.4998.28
                    When you go to YouTube, a process appears that loads the CPU.
                    If you close the browser, this process remains and continues to load

                        I literally can't use YouTube because it lags so much, and it's only on Opera GX, on chrome YouTube work very smoothly, but on Opera GX it lags. Like when I type it shows a letter after like 2 seconds and when I watch it goes on 480p and when I change to 1080p it waits for no reason. YouTube worked like a few days ago, but now it works like I had an internet connection of 10mb/s (but I have like 200mb/s) and Intel Pentium 10 (I have i5-10400F)

                          Just drop this browser : considering the abysmal reply rate from the devs or even moderation on support forums , I'll give them the same amount of attention they give us: zero .
                          Reverted back to Firefox and I'm quite happy: everything works perfectly, nothing lags like mad for no reason .
                          I see no reasons why I would miss Opera

                              Same here.
                              Not only that but many media files now lack video, only playing audio, and youtube even tells me , sometimes, that my browser can not play the video.

                              They (opera) did 'f up something recently , for sure.
