I'd use firefox despite its schizophrenic features, if it were at least as responsive as chrome, on my mostly-idle home desktop. Maybe one day, mozilla. Maybe one day.

Interesting. I have the opposite experience. Searching to try and find _new_ content just presents me with videos/playlists I usually have already clicked/watched.

Then perhaps I'm biased. Where I was raised (eastern orthodox), preaching in favour of contraception and abortion as divine mandate was/is seen as crazy. I certainly don't have numbers to compare.

Firstly, I think you're mistaking "pushing the wrong button" with "pushing a single button". Not that we know either to be true, but anyhow.. ..that's not what I asked. The EAS, EBS, DEAS, etc. they've all
