Great, more app bloatware that will be deleted by next year lol.

      Problem with YouTube subscribers doesn’t YouTuber extreme favorites feeling more important then site

        Anonymous, 25 Nov 2023Lol. Who wants to see half an hour or 3 hour ads on as-is y... moreDon't know what you are watching, but that's not that bad on the stuff I watch.

          If I was a premium user (which I am not mostly out of spite due to YouTube's past greedy decisions), I'd want a truly ad-free (so no "products you may like" and YT TV popup crap) customizable premium experience. I think the best way to implement this is through an API allowing third-party apps for premium users.

          This is incredibly gimmicky and doesn't mean anything when these games can be accessed everywhere else at a cost of $0/month.

              But there are ways of returning the counter.

                I really miss the old days where an ad plays every 3~5 videos, no double unskippable ads, can download videos at HD quality, dislike counter to know if video is bad or not from the start.
                did I miss something else good that's gone?

                  Is it really surprising? YouTube is notorious for adding junk features absolutely no one asked for.

                  I hope no one cries over this stupid feature after it gets removed.

                    Im sad that this has been added my yt premium ended 2 weeks ago

                        Berserker, 25 Nov 2023Out of topic question since it is a YT article. S22 ultra ... moreUpdate oyur patcher and patch recommended apk. Since that mirrors the behavior of yt videos stopping at 1:09 when they started fighting adblockers.

                          Samsung Instant games, just that Samsung's one is free..

                            google should be forced to either sell ytb (entirely with the servers and infrastructure) or the ad business.

                              miss the old yt app where there are not much bs inside it. like cringe youtube shorts, and more useless features that most userbase won't bother. i see why youtube app has gotten heavier as time goes on. now they added 2010 graphics mobile game into youtube??

                                  You go to this site to "watch" videos for free with ads, then for premium they offer you games to "play"?

                                    I dont understand the yt premium and i am not willing to pay them anyways as they dont create there own content anyways on that platform and then they changes rules like daily for the creators to just benefit from them by demonetize them so they get all there ad revenue.

                                    I had a pop up from youtube today that said i have made a comment of hate speech somewhere but dont show me the comment i made and what was so hateful of that. Well hate speech is simple. Speech that someone dont like is a hate speech in there minds. And when you are not far left then all you say is hate speech even when you are left then your still too far right for them

                                      Zendroid, 25 Nov 2023Or just use yt as it is, for free. Instead of more trash. Brave is trash? Vanced is trash? LOL. The only thing that really is trash is your reply.

                                        What's next? YouTube Note?
