Not sure I'd go for "outdated". Seamonkey's problems are mostly with sites which use browser-sniffing, and some of them can't handle "none of the above" at all. There is a Seamonkey setting in about:config where you can set "I'm Firefox, trust me" and that fixes the problem most of the time. Several of the more serious users have Browser-Id strings set up for various sites where they pretend to be another browser just for that site, I'm lazy and use Firefox ESR there instead.
At first blush, I thought that you might be using an old version of SeaMonkey, but then I found out, that the latest SeaMonkey (2.53.7) is based on the Firefox 60.x codebase, which is much older than the latest Firefox (87.0), but should still render YouTube and like sites fine. Maybe not as fast as the latest Firefox release on the same hardware, but should be acceptable.
Well, if you consider seamonkey.exe hogging up to 3 GB of RAM with multiple tabs on over decade old PCs.:P I really hope SeaMonkey hurry up and get the newer Gecko engine. I have to restart the web browser often. I have to use Firefox when it gets very bad.:(

But SeaMonkey is outdated. So, Firefox but it is having issues with web sites that were designed for Google Chrome. :(

No, the problem is bloated web sites like YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc. So slow!

Also, very high CPU usages even when idling.
