youtube webapp is a buggy mess. slow, clunky, bugs out.
only reason people use it is because of the content, not because of the ux.
and even if individual nostr clients fail, there are always new ones, and they dont have to fight for the network and content, all feed the same distributed content databases.
and thats why nostr will win.
any alternative that is not a nostr client, will lose in the long run.
