### Proposed Solution

Like laid out in https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/pull/6366#issuecomment-2548978255, display something that communicates to the user what is happening before the data gets fetched. I think `Loading...` is a good one.

### Alternatives Considered

none.

### Additional Information

As mentioned in https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/pull/6366#issuecomment-2548978255 this is expected behavior so thats why i created a feature request instead of a bug report.
