In today's digital age, there are numerous platforms vying for our attention, but for me, nothing compares to the magnetic allure of YouTube. It has swiftly transitioned from a mere entertainment portal to the very nucleus of my existence.
The vastness of YouTube's content allows for an endless voyage of self-improvement. Whether it's mastering a new skill, learning a craft, or diving deep into the intricacies of a thought-provoking topic, YouTube has it all. The platform transcends borders and cultures, serving as an educational powerhouse, enlightening me with knowledge from every corner of the globe.
Entertainment? YouTube has it in spades. From bite-sized clips to full-length features, the platform is a smorgasbord of genres, styles, and creative expressions. It's a cinematic universe in its own right, where every video is a new chapter waiting to be explored.
Yet, the beauty of YouTube doesn't just lie in its content but also in its potential as a canvas for creation. Inspired by its vast possibilities, my wife plunged into the world of content creation, transforming her passion into her profession. Watching her journey evolve, I too am contemplating diving deep into this dynamic realm.
YouTube has genuinely reshaped our lives. It's not just a platform for us; it's a lifestyle, a community, and a world brimming with endless possibilities. I earnestly wish for everyone to immerse themselves in the YouTube experience, to feel the joy and inspiration it has brought to our lives. For in the vast expanse of the internet, YouTube shines as a beacon of creativity, education, and entertainment.
1. The terrible UI - with tiny, difficult to click interface elements that are always placed really close to other elements that do the opposite of what you intended: want to never see a certain movie recommendation ever again? Whoops you accidentally clicked on ‘add to favorites’
2. The incredibly, inconceivably bad recommendations: how many times do I need to tell you that (as an english speaking resident of a European country, with subscriptions for film photography and programming channels), I really don’t need to see soap dramas in hindi every single week (however good they might be).
3. Speaking of recommendations - now on my home screen all but 2 or maybe 3 recommended videos are taken from my list of subscribed channels. Thanks for the heads-up about stuff I already watch.
4. Why do I have to reset the video quality every single time to a higher quality, when watching on optical-cable internet? Always the same 4 clicks that are needed to upgrade the quality to what I’d like to set as my default.
5. No I don’t want to watch Shorts.
Such user-hostile features throughout a substandard app which is progressively getting more expensive. Thank goodness the creators on the platform keep us coming back.
There is lots of animal abuse on this app. You can't even report a video or channel for animal abuse.. Also, lots of things get past the rules, I've seen it a lot, like A LOT on shorts. Well, I was just scrolling and saw a literal dead dog. If that's not against the rules, that is horrible and it is still horrible that it got past the system. (I'm guessing there's something that makes sure a video doesn't break any rules before it gets uploaded) Good thing I'm not very sensitive to stuff like what was in that video, but other people could have became traumatized. I was also just scrolling a bit once and I saw a completely naked child. Like, what is this?! Youtube, you have LOTS of money and resources to change stuff but still, you haven't for more than 10 whole years.. I am very disappointed and I'm sure lots of others are too.
I used to love being able to watch videos on YouTube, but ever since a couple of months ago my YouTube app hasn’t been working at all. Every time I try to click on a video a gray screen appears saying that something is wrong and that I should try again. Well I have, for four months. I’ve deleted my YouTube history, deleted and reinstalled the appmade sure I’ve had plenty of storage space on my phone but nothing is working. Every other app I have including social media, games and other sites used to watch filmes and videos as well have been thriving flawlessly. No idea how to fix it, would have been a very decent app (if it was working).
God dag, den som läser. Jag ska berätta om vad som är positivt och negativt med youtube. Först det positiva, Youtube är än social webbsida där man kan titta på sina favorit kreatörer. Man kan bli inspirerad, få kreativa tankar. Den gör så att man kan få bra vänner och intressen, man kan lära sig mycket grejer. Det var alla positiva grejen men tyvärr finns det negativa grejer. Det som är negativt för mig är att några kreatörer använder sexuella bilder för att få mera tittare. Det är många som hotar andra, det finns mer men jag kan inte komma ihåg mera som jag har sett. Hoppas ni har det en bra fortsättning och tack för att du har läst.
To begin with the worst, lately Youtube is flooded with scam advertising and given that not everyone has the intuition to spot it’s at least unethical that they do not remove them! Now I understand that this is google to blame and not Youtube’s app per se, so for the app my review is that since the latest update there are several bugs related to the full screen functionality and even worse sometimes the video just turns black with the audio playing only. After killing the app it is resolved but that way either I’m losing the video I was watching or have to start watching again from the beginning.
Watch a long clip, jump out of the YouTube app and so something else for a while. Now jump back again. YouTube have now crashed and tow just seeing a generic suggestion list of clips to play instead of allowing you to continue where you were.
If the guy who came up with the idea to interrupt a YouTube video every few minute with ads was trapped in a burning house and only i had the key needed to let him out, i would grab some popcorn and watch.
Oh golly how fun it is not able to skip ads and is FORCED to watch them.. Who ever came idea is dumb 😑😓 .. And yeah .. Major thumbs down till you guys fix this stupid thing 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 .. This app has had many problems but this is the worst.. Srsly this is not going to end well .. just saying .. It's enough taking the thumbs down .. which is fine ... But do this ... srsly
Youtube har dolt Titta Senare-spellistan. Måste klicka igenom menyer och scrolla längst ned för att hitta den. Har varit så i flera månader nu. ”Tummen ned” tog de bort för ett par år sedan också, så man vet inte om videon är skräp utan att först glo på flera minuter reklam. Hade det funnits en konkurrent hade jag bytt direkt, men de har ju monopol, tyvärr.
Watch Later is no longer under Library. It’s moved to Playlists. The problem with this is that it’s no longer at the front under Library. Even if you sort by newly edited, it’s no guarantee that Watch Later will be at front, I myself edit several playlists every day. You guys have really broken something that worked fine. Please fix this.
