I would say the entire experience of using youtube is having your feed with subscriptions and suggestions. Juggling being logged in in one window to browse around and decide what to watch, get the links, then paste them into another window to watch them while logged out doesn't sound like a good time.

Ads is also a bad time. So probably going to just drop the platform and stop consuming content from all those creators I've been following in some cases for nearly a decade.

I just use freetube. I can subscribe to the channels I want without an account, use sponsor block to block sponsored content, and even use invidious to proxy connections if I want. No ads, not even in-video ads.
