All the faults with Youtube (lemmy.ml)

submitted 4 months ago by [email protected] to c/youtube

3 comments fedilink hide all child comments

No AI regulations… which leads to lies, inaccurate info…
Clickbait (false thumbnail )but thats a cliché at this point
cannot private message the uploader
comments get hidden for as many reasons as there are colors in the rainbow
The absence of transparency between YT and the user,(ex: no notification when your comment didn’t go through)
History for some weird reason actually only lists about 70% of watched videos ( last I checked)
You cannot organize your subscribed channels into lists like in twitter
i want a mode that only home page/ suggested videos are from channels that i am subscribed to..
No dedicated page to manage Playlists, and the INABILITY to search playlists ,
The Youtube app is just being deliberately borked , with every update theres more bugs and design/ UI SINS.
i actually only receive notifications for some things but not others ( ex: number of likes) absence dislike button number for the public
i need a million scripts/ browser extensions on desktop to make the YT experience a bit acceptable..
Youtube's current philosophy of anti-developer for third party apps, and extensions/scripts
Deliberately hiding the video title of deleted videos in playlists..

Some lf these we used to be able to do. Remember what they took from us.

There’s only one thing we can feasibly do to make them feel the pain.

Stop using it.

Meh, it works fine. Very few people use it for more than watching a few videos a day. And several of your "bugs" sound like you problems. My history is fine and I really don't run into bugs.
