The key issue is supervision. YouTube Kids also has very enriching content. My hyper intelligent kid was able to direct himself to all kinds of educational content — way better than being forced to watch whatever crap was on TV like when we were growing up watching He-Man and Skeletor and GI Joe which was some real f’d up shit if you think about it. Like, they had swords and guns and shot people and it was “harmless fun”.
Just fyi - Youtube Kids sells itself as "curated" content, but you can very quickly find Jake Paul videos which are absolutely 100% not kid-friendly on it.
