People who watch on locked down devices

Google Plus already killed the coolness of YouTube long ago. There isn't much point in browsing there anymore, except maybe for music.

Yeah like, I went to middle/high school 2008-2014, when Facebook was so popular that it's kinda hard to imagine today. I didn't have one. At some point I was so out of the loop that nobody even told me we had a freshman dance. In hindsight, could've just used it for a few minutes a week, so that's what I did in college.

Also have a burner Twitter just because that was the only damn way to contact the DMV in 2020.

What's the "ads vs payment" ultimatum, they block ad-blockers? Occasionally someone sends me a link there, and it never bothers me for having uBO.

This doesn't seem nuclear, this seems WAI. YouTube gives you the option of only seeing what you want to see.
