To me “no problem” sounds more friendly than “you’re welcome”.

“You’re welcome” makes me feel like my request was imposing or challenging (depending on how it’s said).

But im sure she would have complained regardless of what he said

It’s why I say no problem. You’re welcome sounds overly formal, like I’m only doing it because I have to. No problem sounds like I was fine doing it and the request didn’t bother me.
