No. It works across all my systems. I never see ads on YT. However...
Videos not loading or playing delayed: That's a YT feature which they implemented for Firefox users, to annoy them. And to promote Chrome as "the fastest" webbrowser.
I also have dns issues at home... I should fix them already. Sometimes, a page doesn't load on the first try.
I experience the same issue. All the elements on the page load extremely slow or sometimes not at all.
I noted an experimental rule in uBO to address delays, but have not tried it yet myself.
Under settings, Filter lists, Built-in, uBlock filters - Experimental

You can try user agent switcher. Sometimes it is detected or causes issues, but if YouTube thinks you are running Chrome then you may get better service.
