I still use YouTube due to not figuring out how to export my playlists in a way where I can just have a plaintext list of all the videos I want to keep track of. I'm planning on coming up with some kind of Python script to take what I get from their "takeout" method and from there, just find a programmatic way to get what I want. So basically, I allow Google to keep cookies on my system but I use a different Google account on my phone to avoid having them track me on different devices.
