Hey everyone,
Recently, I have a quite annoying CPU usage problem when browsing YouTube on macOS. It affects BOTH Chrome and Safari. Here are the steps that can replicate the issue in 100% of the cases for me.
Visit YouTube --> CPU usage is normal
Start watching a video --> CPU usage goes up (of course this is normal)
While watching the video click on the YouTube icon or go to your subscriptions --> ISSUE: CPU usage stays up even though no video is playing anymore
Sometimes the issue doesn't happen after 1 video but eventually (basically after repeating steps 2 & 3 a few times) the issue comes up. Interestingly, if I hit cmd+R to reload the page, the CPU usage is normal again.
Is anyone else also having this issue? Thanks in advance!
