Yes, I don’t get how watching videos on tiny screens is so popular. Seems like self-imposed misery.
Comment on YouTube says goodbye to decade-old video player UI, but users hate the new design

It’s all relative. If i sit a few meters away from a 50 inch screen, then it’s roughly the same size as a phone screen held 30cm from my face. It’s just a matter of perspective.
The level of detail i can see is the same. My fancy earbuds make the sound quality essentially the same if not better.
The only real dofference isninhabe to hold the phone to watch it.
Well, most people… not me, I have a folding phone with a stand, so for me, i can comfortably put the phone on a table on the stand that’s built into the case and watch from there. Works just fine.

I’d have to hold me phone so close to my face I can’t comfortably focus on it to match the relative size of my computer monitor, and it’s not a big monitor. Why would I settle for the jumbotron from the cheap seats when I can sit front row?

Things like this roll out to more people over time. It’s clearly desktop, both from the screenshots and the fact people are complaining they can’t use the scroll wheel to change the volume while hovering over the volume button. That’s clearly a desktop thing.
