PLEASE bring back the regular UI of minimizing playing video on the YT app (or at least have us the option to use the regular one before). This floating video while on app is just not it. It's now blocking way more information and now more prone to accidental touch as it can be moved freely. I don't pay premium just to be more stressed, PLEASE, do something.

ADS, ADS, ADS. I click on a video, ADS, the video ends, MORE ADS. It's everytime I click on a video, in the middle of said video and at the end of the video. I don't know why there's so many ads. Even shorts have ads. IT'S TOO MUCH. You make enough money to not need so many ads to be in the app. Tone it down. I remember YT back then when there's only ONE AD every few videos. It's unbearable at this point and it lags my phone. There even ads when I pause the damn video like cmon now!!!

What can I say. Copyright strikes on FREE songs from companies that don't own the song, got p*rn in the insanely massive amount of ads, dislike button is useless, if I let a 5 second ad play there's another extra 5 seconds before the video continues, there is no second indicator on the ads anymore, the home recommended videos aren't even interesting because it only shows videos that are an exact copy of my previous searches, after skipping an ad theres a floating ad again on the corner, & more.
