On the topic of A/B testing, it would be really neat if there was a way to opt out of it.

I cannot remember a single time in the last 5+ years when the website wasn't broken in some way. Right now the UI has at least 5 separate bugs and a Premium feature of the iPad app has 5 distinct bugs which are also so obvious that it's clear YT doesn't even test their paid version at all.

YouTube is the best argument against opt-out (or forced) telemetry in apps.

complain as you might about reddit but only it and cnn (to my knowledge) allow the kind of "old." url-based opt-outs

They've recently started infecting old reddit with some of the new crap like notifications for every little thing. You can still disable them for now, tediously one by one.
