  Yes, assume every video you watch and like is going to get deleted in a week or month or year, or whatever. We don't know the timeline but it's really not a question of "if", just when.

    It's surprising how much gets removed often by creators or youtube.

      That too! If I go to my old "Favorites" playlists (or whatever they're called), something like 3/4 of the content is gone! Sad stuff.

    The vast majority of content is essentially ephemeral. I don’t tend to go back and rewatch random videos from years ago.

    Not just videos. If you find something useful or enjoyable and want to ensure future access you need your own copy.
