iPhone 12 YouTube Stutter/lag

Does anyone else have an issue with YouTube playback on the iPhone 12? Videos seems to stutter or drop frame rate for a sec, then goes back to normal and then repeats again. My iOS and YouTube is up to date. It seems odd, I never had this issue with my previous iPhone XR

Swiping lag Whenever I swipe down to put the video in small box(in youtube)mode it seems to lag quite a bit. I have an iPhone 7 plus so it’s not like it’s the phones problem. I try reinstalling YouTube and resetting and it only works for a little bit before the lag comes back. And it also happens when i swipe down a whatsapp status. thank you
