I would love to not have YT in every corner of the internet though. I wonder how developers of Youtube forks will deal with this?

IronFox, Fennec (F-Droid), Waterfox and IceRaven are all community-maintained Firefox forks that you could try. They are all built around privacy, some more than others, they all have different design approaches for user needs, but are worth checking out.

I think it's related to trumps threat to seize Kharg Island and other Iran oil infrastructure. And on his TS post said "The U.S. military will attack Iran “VERY HARD” Thursday night", this was after completing a round of airstrikes on Wednesday, including the water supplies.

create bundles of apps, which cost less than if a user were to buy subscriptions to each app separately.

How about owning an app outright like the olden days. I'm feeling like the customer is getting fed up with the concept of not owning a product. I have a serious budget issue and while bundling software together is great, the subscription model almost always turns me away.
