My current laptop is in its last days after 4 1/2 years of heavy use so I'm in the market for a replacement. However I don't know if I want another laptop or a desktop because before I was in school and traveled a bit more and didn't have a smart phone or a tablet but now I have those things and I finished school and I don't travel. I thought about building a desktop as a fun learning experience but I'm not currently in a place in my life to sit down and learn how to build a PC and actually get around to building the PC so I picked which laptop or desktop I would get but I don't know which would be better for me so I want your opinion. Tasks most often done on my computer include Watching YouTube/Netflix/Hulu, Gaming, Programs such as Photoshop/Blender/Unity, Downloading/Listening to music.

Which one should I buy?
Added (1). My current laptop has had a lot of battery problems which resulted in an overheating problems so i feel slightly hesitant to get another laptop because of that because i want my next computer perchance to last as long as possible.
