I am wondering why specifically google and youtube are slow and if there is anything I can try to fix it

below I ping, google.com, youtube.com, superuser.com, and yahoo.com and you can see google.com and youtube.com time's are significantly higher than superuser and yahoo.com, and I can definitely feel the slowness when browsing youtube/google.

I also tried restarting the router

    You should probably complain to your ISP unless you're running some non-standard setup that could be causing this

    Yep, call up the ISP - Maybe try out a VPN and see if the speeds normalize. A workplace (or parental controls) might also throttle traffic to certain services, but it requires someone on your end to have messed around

    What DNS server Is your router configured to use? Have you tried a different DNS provider than your ISP?

    @Ramhound so I switched the DNS to 9.9.9.9 and it seems to be a lot faster, not as fast as normal, but definitely faster. google went from 350~ ms to 81~ ms
