In ten years time YouTube will be entirely inaccessible from the browser as the iPad kids generation are used to doomscrolling the tablet app and Google feels confident enough to cut off the aging demographic.

The YouTube web app is so full of bugs it's almost unusable on a phone.

Comments also disappear regularly on all platforms...

I only use the web app on my phone (via Firefox). It works well enough and I can play videos in the background and block ads.
