I would use firefox, but youtube is basically unusable on it. No idea why, but it is so much better on chrome

I find that interesting because I hear it a lot, yet I’ve never had a problem with it. I use all the usual adblocks and whatnot, but it runs fine.

That’s what I hear, but it’s really bad for me.

Maybe try an extension like chameleon? I’ve had it on with ublock when using YouTube for a bit, makes it seem like I’m using chrome to YouTube.
