Only if you want to watch adult-themed videos, which they have been more lenient towards after the introduction of YouTube Kids and this measure. NewPipe and yt-dlp can still stream them, though, and you could also interact with the video (like, comment, save to playlists) using the official frontend last time I checked.

More lenient?!

I like to watch people playing Hearts of Iron 4 (a WW2 strategy game) and most of the creators avoid saying "Hitler" to avoid getting demonetized and hit with an age check.

It's getting a lot worse.

What I meant is that fewer videos get removed when age-restricting them is an option. Demonetization of any keywords relating to objectionable topics is still ridiculous, though, especially when the company has major AI research labs that could figure out how to differentiate between use in historical context and propaganda. However, that does not pay the bills and they don’t need more users & creators to be happy about the platform.
