As an ex new englander I approve of y’all over youse because it’s hard to use “youse” efficiently without saying “youse guys”.

Yep, just "youse" by itself feels like an intentional regional quirk.

"What do youse want to do?" <= you're from the NY/Phila/I-95 axis

"What do youse guys want to do?" <= you've some exposure to American dialects

"What do y'all want to do?" <= you're an American or playing one in a movie

What about "youse mugs"?
