Chrome vs Edge

[demorez]

i use firefox and its as slow as chrome on your video. i am quite disappointed with the windows performance of the tablet.

Because chrome does not have,firefox also, touchscreen support. If you will use tablet with keyboard&mouse you will notice that scrolling with finger is same as mouse wheel scroll. So there is a lag with finger.

Right, I agree. I just thought maybe someone found a workaround..

At least Edge is going to have add on support really soon so we should expect adblock in the near future.

But even in Edge, even though youtube can play everything smooth, the interaction is very very slow.  Changing to full screen, back to normal, pause, play.. very slow. Scrolling is smooth and the video playback is smooth though.

I’m using Firefox and I still have lag while browsing using touchscreen.
Once Edge will support extensions, probably I’ll switch to Edge on my tablet.

Did you use smooth scroll extension on chrome/firefox? Maybe this can be a solution

I tried every possible solution found on internet without success, even disabling smooth scrolling, hw acceleration, restarting in safe mode, etc.

Use https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/h264ify/aleakchihdccplidncghkekgioiakgal to disable VP9 Support in Chrome

H.264 will speed up your Chrome experience on Youtube dramatically. Also check you have HTML5 enabled https://www.youtube.com/html5
