Since you use Adguard extension, can you check one thing for me? Go to The Verge
Do you notice any delay in page loading? If not click on an article from the homepage. There should be a certain unnecessary delay for the page to come into view. No go back and there should be another unwanted delay. Repeat this and there's always a delay. Do you have this issue? This only happens with Adguard Extension. No problem with uBlock Origin. I want to make sure if it happens to others before opening an issue on github.
Confirmed here your described delay of page loading there at The Verge
Doesn't matter, here the same delay on Firefox or Edge-Chromium, both with Adguard Browser Extension.

I'm not Gandalf, but the site loads immediately for me. Same for going a site back.
Even with JavaScript enabled for first-party

Yhanks, but filter parsing seems unlikely because I am using the small Top500 list and experienced same issue.
Oh yes, you're right. Something else then.

Hmm same for me in all browsers. Since Adguard desktop and extension both have this issue it's worth reporting to them.
Got about 1 second of delay as maximum here with AG Desktop + FF75 + AG add-on in that site, nothing to go crazy for...
But even that 1 sec delay is not present with uBlock Origin so this can be fixed by them I hope.

You're the only one to not experience this. Confusing.

Anyway, here's a gif to show how it is on my system.

It still must be something on your system, because if I see this I have no delay, just slow loading, that could be wifi related.

@SeriousHoax ,thanks, but filter parsing seems unlikely because I am using the small Top500 list and experienced same issue.

@Gandalf_The_Grey odly I am not experiencing the delays you mentioned on MT???
Probably my wifi. Sometimes no delays, sometimes it just hangs... :unsure:

No it's not loading actually. The site was already loaded before testing so Edge already had cache so almost no loading is required for the browser but the delay is there with Adguard only and others above have experienced this too more or less.
Anyway this is related to The Verge only. Other sites are loading fine. Before reporting to them I just wanted to be sure that the problem is not exclusive to my system only that's why I asked.

Okay, but for me it's not like that. I see no white site as in your video. That video showed your issue very clear.
I explained in the previous comment why it's not your wifi. If you're loading the site multiple times one after another in the same session then the browser is loading things from cache.
Sorry, I'm not clear. That was about MalwareTips.

Your video showed a white site. I don't have that on the verge.
So i still think it can be something on your system...
Sorry for the confusion.

Yes there is a delay just as your video shows for you. Just seems like a second or two in lag for that web site, same for me.

There is a slight delay in loading of The Verge website on Edge with Adguard.
On Brave it loads way faster however Brave's Shields are less aggressive with filtering and maybe that's the reason.
