That's fine except I wasn't trying to comment. I was just trying to view some trivial video shared by a family member.

Instead I was assaulted with this UI atrocity forcing me to evaluate some complicated modal dialog before I could even view the damn video. I mean, look at it: it's a pretty clear yes/no question with three confusing answer buttons and none of the labels answer the question posed at the top.

I could tolerate it if it happened when I tried to upload, comment, like, report or favorite something, but just to watch? If I had been logged out I wouldn't have been hassled by this. Apparently my sin is having bothered to create an account at some point in the past when I just wanted to click the like button as feedback to some poster. Why is it so unreasonable to like things without endorsing them? I guess the answer it to delete my youtube account and lurk moar. Fine. This is exactly what wil warned about.

Sadly youtube is now entrenched. Everybody else is a fringe player.
