Oh, Apple is way more forceful than that. I keep finding myself in the situation where I pause YouTube on my headphones, speak for a while with someone, click to unpause and instead of resuming on YouTube that starts Apple Music playing the same U2 album. I'm still refusing to set that damn thing up, much less have it be the default recipient of the play button.

macOS I assume? I use a little app called noTunes (it's on github) to prevent that from happening.

edit: should be this one: https://github.com/tombonez/noTunes

To be fair, this is mostly due to Youtube and their very strict "no video playback when the app isn't open" policies. If you were using any other app, anything from Spotify to really niche audiobook apps, you wouldn't have that problem.

I’m paying for this and use YouTube almost exclusively when the app isn’t open.
