We should use youse because the English language would benefit from a plural you; it’s Austalian instead of the y’all the yanks invented, and ye has gone out of fashion.

Sure, but no. You is fine depending on the context. No need to boganise it.

Feel free to say youse, but I will judge the fuck out of you for it.

I sit on interview panels and if I hear youse or 'haitch' instead of 'aitch' it's points off
