The fact that I cant go to YT and select play all on a channel anymore makes its primary use, music, pointless to me.

Another issue is Pandora, they keep forcing mobile site on Desktop User Agent setting and I work too many hours to go in and change the identifiers needed to make it work. Their app is busted as well, it asks for permissions and will semi-frequently crash when I dont give them permissions.

The whole internets basically becoming shit because of corporate incompetence. Not even willful malice, just idiocy.

Fun little piece of trivia: the primary use of YouTube is not, in fact, music.

Fun little piece of trivia: my primary use of YouTube was, in fact, music, you illiterate nimrod.

Fun little piece of trivia: Originally, nimrod used to mean "skillful hunter" (after Nimrod, the biblical figure) but then in 1940 Bugs Bunny sarcastically called Elmer Fudd a “poor little nimrod", and kids of the time not knowing the reference, simply assumed it was an insult on Elmer's character.

And that's how a cartoon rabbit single handedly changed the meaning of a word.
