I think this is probably ok. It doesnt prevent the user from doing anything on the page.
@Softvision-GeluHaiduc if a user clicks into the search field when it's in this state, does the keyboard come up as expected?

[Softvision-GeluHaiduc]

Yes, if the user clicks the search field the keyboard appears.
If the search field is long pressed (and there is some text copied already) the paste context menu appears. So functionality is not affected.
The strange thing is that this behavior can only be seen on the youtube homepage, no other websites that I've tried had this.

It is weird, but I don't think we need to do anything about it.
