Apple Announces Changes to iOS, Safari, and the App Store in the European Union
And there won't be since Google just got caught giving Spotify a lower rate and now face anti-trust issues. That doesn't mean they don't give certain apps certain permissions. AFAIK, Apple gives Google special permission to enable VP9/AV1 formats decoding [0].
Whether you like it or not, we're heading towards a future where Apple and Google choose who wins and who loses. A good app built on merit will never be able to compete.

This seems great, and it's open source, too: https://github.com/yattee/yattee
And there's a native Mac app!
Maybe I'm just getting old, but as I was reading through the list of features this doesn't have, I just got more and more excited. My watch pattern is pretty much watching videos to solve problems or research some particular thing, and I feel like I find most of them through Google or YouTube search. The recommendations _can_ be pretty good, but there's always those clickbaity, completely unrelated ones mixed in, trying to pull me into a totally separate rabbit hole.
