Hope this is in the right place, I'm using Windows 7 after all.
Something that's been happening a lot lately. I often click on the reply on a comment on youtube videos however, lately a wheel spins for a moment and the comment won't load. I've uploaded a video to youtube, I've blocked some of the info on the screen for privacy purposes.


Why is this happening?

correlating with the other replies … if you implement ad-blockers or script-blockers, these apps may disable some scripts from certain web-pages. so, just as a test … try logging into same page using different browser … or, disable your ad--blocker temporarily … while checking the issue.

Many many many sites use separate networks CDN (content delivery network) to host parts of their websites. So if youtube is using a CDM and you have blocked it only parts of websites will show up. A wireshark capture may show where youtube is trying to load comments from and if it's blocked.

Thanks for replies, it continues to happen on Firefox, I've given up on it now.
