Be glad Youtube still works on the desktop at all. A very large majority of users watch on their phones and YouTube only cares about profits.

I already knew this but still what a terrifying prospect, I love my phone but there are some things a desktop is just better for

Yeah I'm one of the ten people who can't stand watching videos on my phone. I draw the line at gifs.

I'll do football film on iPad or desktop. I'll very occasionally do a video class format on one of those. That's it. Anything else is going on a TV.

Games I love handheld, though, so IDK.

I tend to watch YouTube on my phone while traveling, waiting, relaxing and don’t feel like turning on the TV… but always in landscape orientation. I can’t stand vertical videos.
