The forums are currently filled with a lot of legitimate complaints about the April security update. Let's just say it's a disaster.

Unfortunately for those of you who did install it, you cannot rollback to any previous version. The bootloader Number/fuse was increased, which means you can't go back. 

Currently, only the S9/+ and the Note8 appears to be affected. Other devices, such as the Galaxy A5, the A8, the S8 and the Note9 appears to be spared by this disaster.

Just a message because I really feel it should be said. Wait until there's another update available

If it works on your device, then that's great. However with the number of reports, it's safer to just not install the update

I actually wish I had lost Bixby, instead I get ridiculous buffering while watching video's.

Check with your ISP if there are any disturbances in the network. I know here I have a lot of latency and packet loss issues with Bell (fiber)

bixby isn't that bad, I think part of the reason why people think Bixby is so bad is because they're asking bixby Google assist Information based questions. when bixby is not really an information based assistant, it's more so made to do tasks on your device. though..... to be fair to Samsung it is only 2 years old and could definitely use some work I can understand that.
