This also affects me. Also started a few days ago.

 

Videos won't play in browser (firefox) but work fine on the app, even older ones where the media player worked perfectly in the past.

Clearing cookies or changing browser only brings temporarily relief, before it starts to buffer weirdly and then break again.

 

The moment I select a video it opens for a half a second before kicking me back into list view, happening consistently on nearly all videos, with the odd few second video being able to playback.
