- 7 out of 56 in playlist I keep to give links to other people;

- 15 out of 112 in playlist of funny videos;

- 27 out of 218 in playlist of WTF videos;

- zero out of 89 in music video playlist;

Similarly-old account here, and yeah - 10%-ish loss on average fits all my longer-standing / high-value playlists as well.

Especially when it comes to educational or conference content, those accounts seem to close with higher frequency.

The worst part is that you can't even see the name of removed videos.

Just to pile on the anecdotal evidence with a similarly old account-- most of my playlists are littered with gray boxes of unavailability as well.
