Use a front-end like Piped or Invidious and be happy.

Negative comments and dislikes incoming in 3, 2, 1...

Why do you think you'll be downvoted for that? I see people recommend them literally all the time on similar posts

Firstly. People don't like Piped or Invidious because they often gets broken due to Google's work to try shut them down completely.

Invidious is basically all broken already because of this. And it can be hard to find a good Piped instance that works.

I have Piped installed on my server and it happens that I get "login to prove you're not a bot" or what the error message is.

And secondly. People tend to be very mean online and I don't trust any people until they have proven they are indeed nice and not mean in any way (like judging or trolling).

Lastly. I am in a very bad mood which boosting the second reason.

You were not rude to me. You asked a simple question, that's it :) I'm autistic too.
