Google has been up to evil shit and no one cares

This is just a Twitch server issue. I get it on completely unrelated channels using Firefox.

Edited

I've heard people argue this but I've never had an issue on firefox, brave, safari, and even obscure shit browsers. It seems too convenient to be accidental. I'm guessing chrome is somehow transferring a cookie or other setting that breaks shit. My computers w/o a google product installed never fail to load.

It may also be caused on your end by an extension that blocks stuff. Do you use uMatrix or Ghostery, anything like that?

I do use ghostery and ublock origin among other stuff like https only. I can uninstall all that in chrome and google products still somehow break shit. I'm telling ya. It's not a coincidence. I'm using linux, mac, windows, and a chromebook for guests in this house. Everything works fine in regards to twitch until... I install a google product. My google products will work about 50% of the time when it comes to loading twitch.

Yeah, Twitch isn't exactly the most reliable service. I mean, it works most of the time. But sometimes... sometimes it sucks.

I'm pretty sure they scrubbed their motto of "Don't Be Evil".

Haven't checked personally but some people on voat were saying that.

Stop using Chrome. I've switched to Brave which for now has been a pleasant experience. I reported a bug once, used another browser as a workaround, and they fixed it within 24 hours.

Well, I did read that they do work against each other. For instance, trying to watch Amazon prime on an Android device will lag and other issues.
