Monitor wall mount on a drywall
The "issue" with drywalls is that the sturdiness entirely relies on the builder and wether they build to code - right stud distance, right amount of screws at the right interval, the thickness of the board and wether there are two boards on top of each other or not and the anchor you inted to use.
With the right screw anchor a regular wall built to code is pretty sturdy as long as you spread the load a bit. As a rule of thumb I'd have the anchors ~20cm apart in order to not weaken the board. For higher loads I only go for these kind of anchors: https://www.fischerfixingsusa.com/en-us/products/cavity-fixings/board-fixing/metal-cavity-fixing-hm
I had a 10 year old 46" LCD (read: HEAVY) mounted with 4 of those on a drywall.
You want to make sure to minimize the lever so get a slim wallmount. The shorter the lever the less torsion the less pulling forces. Pulling forces are the weak spot of a drywall. So the wall mounts you linked are a poor choice. You'll want the flat ones not the ones with a swively arm.
If you want to be 100% sure mount it to the wall studs. If those are made of wood (and not thin metal) you can hang a hammock on it and have a small party in there. I'd take proper drywall over a old and brittle brick wall anytime. In this apartment I have to glue in every single screw anchor.
Edit: watching the video I should maybe add why I like the cavity anchors. You can usually pretty easily remove them and all you have to fix is a clean hole. The flap anchors are more sturdy but removing those can be a challenge (depends on the type).
