1) YouTube
"Liking" comments or typing replies is an absolute nightmare, and editing my own comments once submitted is not possible at all.

Example:
When I tap on the "like" button, I expect the browser to accept as a "like". Instead, it opens a menu like this:

Attachment 41713

You may call it a minor inconvenience, and you may well be right.
Other cases I mentioned like handling the replies is much worse, almost to the point of being unusable.

2) eBay
Browsing is almost OK (on a par with other mobile browsers), but I get a big red banner on top telling me I am using an unsupported browser when I try to make a payment.
I don't use the native SFOS browser, I do use Iceraven-browser, Fennec F-droid, Midori Android or Firefox ESR in a Linux container as alternatives.
