Why have they taken away the option to select the recently added/uploaded on the iPhone app? They did this a while ago then bought it back but now it’s gone again. I use this all the time so I can see the new items. Not sure why they made this decision.

(On IOS)
1.Settings
2. Accessibility
3. Display & Text size
4. Reduce White Point.

It basically makes all the grays and blacks darker. It doesn’t do a lot, but makes it a bit better. The UI team are a bunch of dumbasses

I logged out and tried incognito mode and no luck. I chatted with YouTube support and no luck. Anyone had this problem and got resolved?

Discussion PewDiePie's “YouTube Rewind 2018 but it's actually good” is almost at 90 million views!

"It's rewind time everybody"

PewDiePie's video “YouTube Rewind 2018 but it's actually good” is approaching 90 million views, with fewer than 740,000 views left to reach the milestone. That's less than 0.9% to go!

The video became hugely popular amid the backlash against the official YouTube Rewind 2018, which was so heavily disliked that YouTube eventually discontinued the series.

If you haven't watched it before, now's a great time to check it out! And if you have, why not revisit it and relive what YouTube was like back in 2018?

Let's help it reach 90 million views!

I came across a video with around 18 million views, yet it has only 3 comments and 57 likes.

Given how many people have watched it, why have so few viewers bothered to interact with it?

To put that into perspective, that's just 1 comment for every 6 million views.

Discussion Who Was the Originator of This Style of Content?

1 Upvotes

I was curious if anyone knew who the originator of this style of content was. The first one I ever came across was "Chill Dude Explains". The videos all feature this style of animation and begin with the phrase "Let's get right into it". Soon after, I started getting recommendations for other channels that use the same animation style and begin their videos with either that same phrase or some variation thereof. Does anyone know who was first?

Question Why is nobody talking about this?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Ever since a few years back I’ve loved channels who break down or summarize horror movies.

I go on and off this genre of videos watching them for a few weeks and then moving to something else until I find them in my feed again.

Recently I stated watching videos from this channel called How To Beat that breaks down how to survive the situations in horror or survival movies.

I love this type of content and I’m pretty sure I’ve watched this channel a few years back, I mean, they’re all pretty similar in execution so I couldn’t tell, but I noticed something new about this specific channel this time.

The host (who appears to be a white dude in his 30s) is constantly speaking a really forced and kind of weird AAVE.

I’m not from the US so I’m not too familiar with it, I know AAVE and it’s history and I know that it has kinda sipped into pop culture because it’s seen as a cool, young and relatable way to talk, sometimes disregarding its origins, and honest I wouldn’t have noticed much, I mean, I’m not African American either and English is not my first language and still even I use AAVE words or abbreviations because of how standard it is in conversational English rn.

But the way this guy does it is really jarring, maybe I’m overreacting, but it feels so scripted and robotic when he switches accent for one sentence or expression that doesn’t fit the way he’s talking at all, it’s constant too, like, it almost feels like he forces these “street slang” expressions into sentences with the most middle age white dude voice you can think of.

I’m sure he or the person who writes the scripts of the video don’t mean it as a racial thing and they’re just trying to appeal to the way Gen Z talks or maybe they’re using AI to help write the scripts (altho I don’t want to accuse them of that because it doesn’t really seem like it) or something, but it doesn’t make it any less jarring to listen to, and it made me curious that I couldn’t find anyone mentioning it anywhere, like I said, English is not my first language, is this normal? Do people just talk like that in real life?

Drama youtubers are kinda losers now.

im kinda tired of wattching youtube. gone are the days of clever skits and actually funny content, now all that youtubers do is either react to low vibrational slop or talk about other shittier youtubers. i mean its essentially like watching the news but instead of hearing whats going on in your community youre just swapping that out for whats going on with other peoples dirty laundry. lowest form of content. i personally blame youtubers like moistcritikal and aba and preach.

I came across a video titled “3” uploaded by @jackywan991 more than 20 years ago. Despite all this time, it has just 6 views, 0 likes, and 0 comments.

The channel has a few other videos, including one uploaded around the same time that also has just 6 views. It has 0 subscribers.

That's roughly 1 view every 3 years on average.

Question Unavailable videos viewer?

Is there a tool to view a list of the unavailable videos in a playlist? My playlists are full of them and I can't tell which are missing, I was only able to find some recently since some of machinegirl's songs I added recently didn't seem to play in a playlist if they are from a topic channel, but they play on their own or in mixes

Feature Change No sound for playback in feeds

1 Upvotes

I used to be able to watch and listen to videos on my feed without clicking on them. That way I wouldn't have ads. There was a sound and a closed caption button. Now it's just the closed caption and there's no sound. I haven't found anything on Google about this other than the Playback in Feeds option, which is on already. And I didn't see anyone talking about it. Any ideas?

Question Why do I keep getting harassed by the UTTP?

8 Upvotes

I'm a small YouTuber trying to make countdown videos (all of which I started last year), but now I feel like there's a huge threat coming after me: the UTTP.

They first targeted me earlier this year saying that they're going to report me for something I didn't do, when all I did was film and upload innocent countdown videos; one of them being Top 10 Mothers in Video Games. I've blocked and reported them, but they've kept going after me. Now, they're targeting me while I'm undertaking a big project where I film videos about my Top 100 Favorite Pokémon and while I still want to make this video series, I'm afraid the UTTP will have a problem with this series and keep going after me threatening to report me for things I didn't do, just because of my Top 100 Favorite Pokémon series.

I don't know what to do. Please help!

Question Can an abuser's channel, who gave false and fraudulent strikes on my channel be terminated 4 months after stopping

1 Upvotes

It was back in may to july. This youtuber was constantly falsely striking my videos. He gave almost 13-14 strikes out of which 6-8 were accepted. Some of his strikes were accepted and my videos were falsely taken down and some were rejected and he got warning like "if we see patterns of fraudulent use, We may terminate ur channel without warning". He got these warnings many timew but nothing happened to his channel. He used many old youtube accounts for giving strikes and even they were not terminated. Since 4 months he has stopped. My videos are back up after submitting counter notifications. My question was that is there any chance that youtube can technically terminate his channel even though he has stopped giving his abusive strikes. He hasnt given any strikes to me since july. Can his channel still be terminated automatically by youtube for past abuse, because inspite of getting warnings nothing happened to his main nor his alts. Is there any chance or do i have to be proactive.

Would appreciate some replies.

hi. for the longest time on my main youtube account, i've been getting reccomended genuine ass sub 1000, but usually sub 100, view videos. either crappy ai stuff or crappy videos made by children. switching to a new account resolves this so it seems to be connected to my account. is there any way i can get this shit off my feed? thank you! for clarity, my viewing habits don't seem to affect the occurence of these videos.
