I’m with you, and would prefer a browser based frontend for yt that doesn’t brick. I see no reason for standalone apps anymore whenever the data is exclusively online. On the other hand, I hate how webapp versions of Excel/Spreadsheets (for instance) are pushed for office software, where the data has no need to live in the cloud. At home I stick with LibreOffice, as the only issue I’ve had with switching over to it was VBA scripts and macros I wrote over a decade ago not working - and those really needed to be updated anyway.

Is that one a desktop app? I primarily use pop_OS and would prefer a web solution. I’ve tried piped, invidious, peertube, and libretube iirc
