It was only a matter of time before Google put their foot down and insisted that you can't have a good experience on YouTube. Its time is coming.

Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Twitter, Telegram, Discord, Reddit. YouTube is literally the last remaining social media app that doesn't require an account. My real fear is that it will start asking for an account like other social media.

I watch a ton of YT, my experience is fine. Only media subscription that's worth it, imho.
