I have removed sharethis from my website and got no improvements. Clearly, it's the CMP who is creating this delay between the accept click and next paint, resulting in poor INP.
If possible, someone from the team should use VPN to access my website and measure INP after the consent click with web vitals extension. Of course, they should have in mind that performance on mobile will be even worse, so they can even use throttling option in dev tools to emulate that.
It seems like this issuer affects many publishers, so I think it is worth some further attention.
Also note that my website has 99% of traffic from regions where the consent banner is shown, which makes the issue worse. Publishers whose websites has little traffic from EU will not experience this problem, so it's possible this issue went overlooked.
INP problem with CMP banner
Ezoic Employee
bojo Hi Bojan, thanks for bringing this up. We did noticed the Core Web Vitals (specifically LCP) from a few sites were suffering due to the consent banner, so made some changes to alleviate the impact of the banner on site speed. This should improve Core Web Vitals/LCP over the coming days. Can I ask how you think the current INP issues are due to the consent modal? It looks like the poor INP scores are actually coming from the Ezoic ad/prebid JavaScript and video player on your site.
What optimizations have you enabled on your end? These may be inadvertently causing the poor INP scores by conflicting with the way we deliver JavaScript.
Hello. I have the same problem.
My site was optimized well for INP. After I started running EZOIC ads it is dramatically going up. I checked the LEAP and I turned it off because it didn't help. I need to optimize EZOIC scripts and I believe that LEAP optimization doesn't affect them?
Before I even confirm the CMP button I see in developer tools that it loads a ton of scripts. What to do about that?

altmanluk You can adjust ads with LEAP. Just log in and go to LEAP -> Optimize -> Script Execution -> Advanced Settings -> Disable Ads Above the Fold. This can also help with INP.
In addition, there are many other LEAP recommendations you can implement on your site.
LEAP -> Measure -> Overview -> Recommendations
In addition, you can use this INP guide:

Mohammad2306 My Adsense was approved through invite link from Ezoic to manage my account for mediation. And I have disabled and canceled the mediation. Please I want my new earnings from the AdSense ads on my website from this new week to be going to my Adsense dashboard while the Ezoic ads to be on my Ezoic dashboard, since i have disabled the mediation. Please grant my request
Ezoic Employee
EnyinnayaMichaelC Why did you disable mediation? If you want to benefit from both AdSense and Ezoic at the same time, you will need enable AdSense mediation. If you have linked AdSense and enabled mediation, this means that AdSense is able to bid alongside the Ezoic ad partners so if AdSense is willing to pay more to show an ad, their ads show and you gain revenue. The revenue you gain from AdSense showing an ad on the site can be found in your AdSense dashboard.
Imogen I just want my earnings to sperate
Imogen can't I opt-out from Ezoic managing my Adsense dashboard
Imogen my aim is to opt out Ezoic from managing my Adsense account. That's what I want to do
Imogen please opt it out for me that's my only request
Ezoic Employee
That sounds like a misunderstanding. Even with AdSense Mediation, your AdSense Mediation revenue would get paid out through your Google AdSense account. You are free to log in to your AdSense account and delink Ezoic but you will just cause yourself to lose revenue in that case.

Mohammad2306 Check this image concerning opt-in out

Ezoic Employee
EnyinnayaMichaelC It's not clear what you are asking. The guide is very clear. If you do not want to set up AdSense Mediation, you don't have to do that. You can manage that setting through your AdSense account.
Mohammad2306 you guy's are in control of my Adsense and I can't drink anything
If you look at this image below you see that the third-party button is redirecting me back to the home page of my Adsense. Meaning I'm not in control of my Adsense. You guys are in control of my Adsense account

Mohammad2306 you guy's are in control of my Adsense and I can't delink anything

EnyinnayaMichaelC You previously mentioned that you had already disabled and cancelled Mediation. Perhaps you are confusing AdSense Mediation with Google Ad Manager / MCM. We cannot make any changes to your Google AdSense account. That's on your end.
In addition, there appears to be a problem with your current hosting settings:
"This IP is being shared among many domains
To view the domain you are looking for, simply enter the domain name in the location bar of your web browser.
Powered by DirectAdmin Web control panel"
Your site appears to be showing ads without actual content. Please check your hosting settings and get the site back up immediately. In the meantime, our Platform Quality Team has had to disable Ezoic ads on your site.
