If we’re talking about English, there were different kinds of English which were spoken (Old English, Middle English, Early Modern English, and Modern English. And no, Old English doesn’t just mean English that sounds ‘old’. It was an early variety of English that was spoken from the 5th/7th century to 1066). All of them had their own phonology, morphology and syntax. In short, they followed their own linguistic rules and conventions. The way they sounded wasn’t just randomly made up. To find out more, look up the varieties of English I mentioned or take a look at this Wikipedia article about Historical linguistics.

I’m just adding an additional source, because I just recently read about this way of using the forward slash to create abbreviations. English Language & Usage has a good post on Stackexchange. Wikipedia says they are used for “two-letter initialisms” (a type of abbreviation). Wikipedia also provides some more examples, see here.
Just don’t add any random numbers to the name, which I see you haven’t done, so I think you’re good.
Joke’s on them, I don’t want Youtube recommendations anyway. I just search for the stuff I want and subscribe to the channels I like. Besides, I’ve made my Youtube front page blank with CSS to avoid all the spam.
I don’t know but you’re better off using MusicBee anyway.
TIL. Also, the blog post claims that donkeys can be seen “picking them [coyote] up by the neck and shaking them wildly: possibly causing trauma that can disable or injure”. Woah.
