Mmh. They do so much silly stuff nowadays with the ad-blocker detection, handling browsers differently and people from different countries and all the magic that chooses your data rate and quality... I'm not surprised that it's a different experience for everyone. Hope they don't take third party frontends away from us for good. (I'd be also happy if every creator switches to a better alternative. But I don't see that happen any time soon.)
