Help Open Youtube in Browser, not the App?

Another thing annoying the heck out of me with this thing... how to just open a Youtube video in my browser (Opera)?

It automatically opens in the Youtube app, which is horrible. I can't see any comments, make any comments nor can I see the URL of the vid. It's ridiculous if I want to share a vid on Wattsapp or something, as there is no URL shown, and I just generally don't like the interface.

The Youtube app has the preferences thing grayed out, and Opera, logically, doesn't seem to have any "Open website X with the browser you're already using.." setting, Yes, that was sarcasm, sorry.

My Note2 would ask me, Youtube app or browser? This POS is not giving me any choice. How do I get the choice back?

Thanks

i would think you should be able to go to manage apps>youtube and then clear the data/cache...then the next time you click on a youtube link you should be able to choose how it opens. you do have flash installed right? ive never used opera before but i have flash installed and i can watch youtube in firefox beta no problem
 
Weirdly enough it's started working OK by itself. Dunno if something I did earlier but seems OK now.

Cheers :)
