I'm on it about ten hours a day when I'm at home, sometimes 15. About the same amount of time I used to listen to the radio - it's great background for when I'm coding, modelling, video editing or whatever plus a great way of relaxing in-between as well as being a great learning resource.
It's great because I can choose what to watch based on the task I'm doing, background waffle about interesting but missable subjects works well for a lot of stuff. I like twitch too but at it's live I can't walk away so easily if I get absorbed into someone's stream so find YouTube much more functionally useful.
15 hours...sleep for 8 hours, and you have 1 waking hour where YouTube isn't playing.
I guess old people are/were like this with TV and/or radio, though, so it's nothing new.
