Author Topic: I loving hate youtube.  (Read 2989 times)

I just use Vimeo now. I don't put up with Google anymore.

youtube prompts me every week or so to use my real name for my display name. I don't want to. why does it keep asking? I thought that was the point of a username??

they're trying to shove google+ down my throat and it's stuff and it can forget off.

this also happens to me, but not that often.

usually once a month.

every channel looks exactly the loving same. of course you guys don't care since all you do is watch videos but the people who make the videos enjoy more than a loving banner at the top of their page -_-
I guarantee that most don't give any forgets.

My youtube account is being upgraded to some new stuffty layout, and i don't want it to.

exactly.

seriously, who thought this was a good idea? "let's make all the channels look like a boring news site!!!!"

i didn't mind the past changes because they didn't affect the layout critically like this one but this is just awful.

What the stuff have you been smoking?

Vimeo always annoyed me but I guess I may end up putting up with it

Has an option to force video quality, plus a ton of other useful features.
Love you for that, seriously. Thanks so much :D

Speaking of YouTube..

The heck is this little dot? You can find it below comments just between the like button and the reply button.. And you can't even click it to go anywhere, it's just there.

Google's Youtube app is far more horrible. It switches video quality inorder to make up for the iPhone/iPod's current location or internet connection and there is nothing you can do about it.

nothing

The new channels look like stuff. And to me, they are much harder to navigate. Instead of having 2 separate lists of uploads and favorites, they made it into a clusterforget. All it says is "Recent Uploads" and Im not sure if thats the newest video or if its just listing random videos. I mean youtube does that to me all the time in my feed telling me about videos that the people I subscribed to uploaded a year ago. Also, there are suggested videos on peoples channels, instead of just having one persons content on their own god damn page. I dont see how anybody could like the way it is now, and the people who tell others to deal with change should see why others loving hate youtube. Also, it told me that somebody replied to a comment I had made, but there was no way to see where the comment was and no option to reply. Could have sworn that was a thing before....
Dont even get me started on the Youtube App....

it's in constant 720p for me and it's loving annoying, always buffers and I can't change it.
I just use the web version which is much better.
