Well, it might be a coincidence, but it also wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't. Your identity was probably linked using fingerprinting. Private browsing mode offers almost zero protection against this. Even Tor isn't protected unless you enable the Safest security level (= completely disable JavaScript). This might even be done through multiple levels of indirection (mobile browser fingerprint -> Google account -> desktop browser fingerprint).

Me neither, possibly because JSX, Svelte etc. do actually interpret it that way, deviating from HTML.
uBlock Origin is specifically one of the whitelisted extensions, and you can disable this feature by setting extensions.quarantinedDomains.enabled to false (in about:config)

It can, using CSS injection: example.com##body:style(overflow: auto !important)
Well, I use Stylus, and it works fine on Android (but you need to use a "custom addon collection" to add it, which is only available on Beta and Nightly). I see no reason why Stylish wouldn't also work.

I just use brand accounts for this. You can create them here: https://www.youtube.com/channel_switcher

It's the best hidden feature of YouTube. You switch using the normal account switcher.

If you're on Mastodon, you need to use @[email protected] instead of [email protected]
WebAuthn (or the new iOS "Passkeys" feature which is based on WebAuthn under the hood) does this.
