YouTube tests new feature that replaces fullscreen gesture with scrolling videos

YT is trying hard adding "new features" nobody want to make us forget that they can't find a solution for the issue where the app cannot remember my preference for video resolution & captions etc, even on the same session on the same device.

                I've been suffering with this "feature" for a few days now, thought it was a permanent change everyone got. My issue is that, when I tap and hold to speed up the video, when I let go, the app is so sensitive that sometimes it registers me letting go as a swipe. It was manageable when the gesture action changed fullscreen status, but now it's infuriating when it changes videos entirely.

I can't count how many time GSMA automoderation blocked my posts that NEVER had bad words in them. This generation has been subjected to too much curation and that we have to watch our words lol.

                      notafanboy, 13 Nov 2024Tushar sounds angryRightfully, so. We're really living in a digital idiocracy and companys need to be called out for it, or it will get even worse.

                        I don't use youtube anymore. Thank God.
                        Now I use an alternative. The internet is full of good alternatives. Just do some research and you shall find it.

                            This is not a good feature. They should bin it

                              Sam N8 808 owner, 13 Nov 2024Ouch, never thought I'd see expletives on GSMA. Howeve... moreI chose to embed just the video instead of the full tweet for that reason but since this is Twitter we are talking about it shows the text before slowly loading the video anyway.

                                I'm glad I disabled YouTube app on my phone

                                      They have been trying to make it more and more like TikTok, introducing Shorts etc. It’s UI is a complete disaster these days and ‘enhanced bitrate’ video for a price is the lowest thing I’ve ever seen anyone do!

                                        This is just straight up regarded, like someone in a management position needs to do something just so they can said that they did something and prove that they're not useless
