Youtube’s search engine is pretty good and you can usually pull up someone’s username if it exists. You can sometimes replace the channel name with the player’s username, but due to youtube’s method of channel naming, this doesn’t always work.
Sometimes a youtube URL will be formatted like this:

but other times it will be formatted like this:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIs9_nhkuPuBP2L9MEWb_cg/

Twitch links are formatted like this: https://www.twitch.tv/chushberry/

Young people cannot manage a youtube account, so a 16 year old’s join date would sometime in the past few years. It’s always possible a parent set up an account for them, so this information would not be a conclusive way of checking age, but taken in context with other information it may be useful.
