These are for rare dissidents who refuse to accept YT ones.  >:D

SiliconWizard:
Ah, explanation there: https://apps.uk/what-is-youtube-nocookie/
But the hilarious part is that this does store cookies of its own. :-DD

Both of those will stay as set for the session, so it's a one time thing. I don't know how they do that, but it seems to work without cookies. Sometimes annotations get turned off if they get annoying enough. That setting always resets on  the next video.

My experience with turning off auto-play (not logged in) is mixed. Sometimes it stays off, but mostly it's turned on again for a new video. But after viewing a few videos and turning off auto-play each time (maybe 5 times) it will stay off for new videos. On Odysee auto-play stays off when turned off once (also not logged in).

Well, I went to youtube and turned off all cookies, then watched three videos with no problems. I checked in Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data > Manage Data..., and nothing is listed. No cookies, no data.

Here are my uBlock settings for youtube.
