Agreed. YouTube shines with personalized feed, and is unusable without it.

If you’re using it as a tool it’s perfectly usable with just a search bar. I want to learn how to do something in a visual manner, I go to YouTube. Type in “how to replace [part] on [my car]”. All I have on the YouTube homepage is a search bar, because I used the Unhook extension to hide everything else.
Oh, I use YouTube for my hobbies, which are very visual.

Using YouTube (or any video thing) for programming topics drives me nuts, the presenter never goes at my pace.
