All the fucking time. This shit is infuriating.

I didn't get this. Anyone care to explain?
Oh I guess that wasn't just me being an idiot, this is some kind of systemic idiocy. Nice to know.
I solely open YouTube videos in new tabs can't relate.
I new-tab basically anything. Faster than having to reload the search page 20 times looking for a solution.
How does that stop you from being affected? It's literally an <a> element
I mean I do get the page
But I don't lose some video I may never find again
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp
yt-dlp is a feature-rich command-line audio/video downloader with support for thousands of sites.
Why are you promoting it like it's one of those scam sites?
Feel free conduct a cursory search for it on this very platform which will take all of five seconds.
I don't know what you mean by this, but you probably misunderstood what I'm trying to say. I know of this tool, and I have been using it for years, but going into a random comment section and posting a link very vaguely related to the original conversation is a thing usually done by scammers, and doing this probably doesn't help spreading the good word about your favourite project
Yeah that sucks, but have you ever heard of a thing called the "Back" button?
Yes, but it does a refresh for some reason when you use it. And it also makes the thing more painful sometimes, because first the browser uses the cache, shows you the page as you left it, then it does a refresh before anything becomes clickable
But if you already watched the video then should there not be a link like "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foobar" in your browser history?
