Best Lightbox

Which is the best overall Lightbox? I see that the Page Properties sets a Lightbox with options for Fancybox, Magnificpopup and prettyPhoto, and also see that there are a number of others we can manually download.

In general, most Lightbox options in WYSIWYG follow the Page Property setting, except the PhotoGallery Tool that can select its own Lightbox.
The problem I have is that YouTube videos work only with the Fancybox lighbox. So if in a Menubar I wanted to some of the links to be for YouTube video and some for other items I host, I can only use the lightbox defined in the Page Properties, which may not work for all.

So has anyone any favorite personal Lightbox that would work well overall for a variety of items: embeded YouTube video and Photos and locally hosted files?
Thank you.

The extension "Unite Gallery" is a favourite of mine :D

I use fancybox3 (not the built in one). I add the appropriate html objects and CSS to make it work as I want it.

In my perspective the best one is LC Lightbox which is beautifully organized and if pablo can add the premium version then it also has photo sharing buttons for social media and also can download images in a click. also it is mobile responsive and can show title and description of your images. LC Lightbox...
