It certainly is apt when avoiding "it". Especially when referring to animals and babies for instance, those you can't know the gender of.

Y'all is singular and neutral and awesome. Yes it's singular. The plural is all yall.

I agree, I find it hard to know which way it is meant. It requires more effort to decipher than if we had a distinctive non-binary singular word.
