How? How are people using youtube that makes it social media?

There’s a comments section on most videos, and even the nature of users uploading videos, often in response to each other, is social media as much as it is making art and entertainment.

There’s no editorial process, anyone can post anything (within the TOS).

A lot of people use it for personal vlogs and such. It might be easier to ask how it’s meaningfully different from something like tiktok that makes it not social media.
