Problem in scrolling Youtube page on Safari macOS Big Sur

Hello,

Since this morning I'm having problem in scrolling YouTube pages on Safari (it freezes and blocks while I scroll with the trackpad).


Anyone can help me in resolve this?

This problem appeared today, in the previous days I didn't have it.


Thank you!

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.0

I find this occurs when the 'vertical elipsis' (three vertical dots) appears to show more comments are available.


If you scroll on the very left of the screen (to the left of the avatars) it seems to work smoothly.

Right? My theory is that Google is fudging with YouTube on Safari to get you to use Chrome, as this problem doesn't exist on Chrome. I honestly wouldn't put it past Google, ‘cause Apple and Google have had some really petty fights recently with the PiP YouTube problem. It's like, yeah, I get that you guys are rivals, but can you please put the consumers before your rivalry?
