I honestly don’t khow to describe this, but when I open YouTube, there’s a random chance for it to redirect me to the YouTube app and to add insult to injury, signs me out of the YouTube site on Firefox too… I have no idea how to fix this, I tried everything I could think of

Hi there, Unfortunately, this is the default behaviour of YouTube. As far as I know, there's no way to change this.

If it helps, you can try opening YouTube links in private browsing mode, although you'll have to sign in to YouTube every time.
