    Iirc the thing is it loads a different js file when it detects chrome which doesn’t have the 5s delay. The reasoning is this is part of some anti adblocker code and chrome didn’t need the extra logic.

      So it’s got nothing to do with Firefox it’s to do with preventing and blocking so it’ll happen on Chrome as well.

          Chrome doesn’t need a 5 second delay to implement ad blocking, or Chrome doesn’t need a five second delay because it’s Chrome?

          Does an important difference here because one is anti-competitive and the other isn’t.
