    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.

        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.
