    It's happened before, and that time I re-installed Flash and it worked just fine.

    I updated flash today when I opened my computer, and opened youtube. It was fucking slow and choppy and whatnot.

    If you're on a Mac, flash has always sucked this much. On Windows, it could be an issue with the hardware acceleration on videos. Also the HTML5 player takes up even more CPU, so if that's the issue, that's only going to make it worse.

    I've got Windows 7 and I use Firefox.
    I'm not even that html5 thing, mostly because my browser doesn't support "h.264".

    I thought Mozilla had changed their decision on that.

    I have
    This. It also auto updates flash player for you. If you want to stick with FF, try opening it in Safe Mode with no addons.

    Since I just noticed you can bring the bookmarks and stuff like that from Firefox to Chrome, it's time to change browsers.

    Though, I still miss the changeable personas and stuff like that for Firefox.

    IS SAD
