Especially in light of reasons 4 (cleaner experience) and 6 (privacy), one might want to try using Invidious to access YouTube videos. FreeTube for desktop and NewPipe for Android are excellent YouTube clients as well.

Are Basilisk and Palemoon actually that resource efficient? Ran a test with the exact same sites open on both Basilisk and FF, including a 4k video and FF uses much less CPU/GPU, but 30% more RAM.
You can use another web browser or better Freetube specifically for YouTube.
