Youtube is pretty much fine. Outside of a few janky age restrictions, you can just go to youtube and watch videos.

Remember right at the start: "There's no reason you can't abolish login walls while still serving ads." This is how youtube works.

X is the one blocking or messing up views without accounts (and also being too likely to ban accounts that don't give a phone number).

Though most people posting on youtube are doing it for free or negligible revenue (I'm not sure how it works out on a per-view basis), and a lot of the rest make almost all their money elsewhere.
