I just tried to comment on a youtube video, (I already have G+) and a window popped up asking me to update my account. It took me DIRECTLY to a page saying "Close this page and return to app." When I went back, nothing changed and the window popped up again. I still can't comment, and some of my likes aren't recorded at all.

Youtube has become a useless machine.

It's not useless, they just need to fix the interface instead of braking it in new ways every month (I hate how they've removed restrictions and renamed them new features to google+)

My comment was a response to Jbot's pop-up issue.

fair enough.

fairy nuff.

anyone who hates Google and disagrees with their idea of saving your search terms, which can be legally requested at a later date if the need arises, should use something like this. i have for some time. i don't want the governments attention just because i have a healthy interest in homemade explosives.

i don't like tracking. i am a ninja. don't track me.

But I like their Search Engine. And their Mailbox. And maybe Maps. I just hate everything else they made D:

i actually hate all of those things, no exaggeration.

Thank you so much. I've been too lazy to find a place that doesn't track every single fucking thing I do.

Also, I like Google maps because you can street view and walk around entire cities that way. Sometimes you'll catch people in A MOMENT OF WEAKNESS and that is always great. Like... haha random person hopping a fence whose pants got caught, I can see your bare ass. Hope you'll think about THAT the next time you go around existing.

actually yeah, i forgot about all that shit. i do like Google maps then, it's the only thing i use of theirs that i know of. other than YT.

If Google does save our search terms then I feel sorry for the poor bastard that looks through all the porno I've searched.

hello compatriots. i just stopped by to say YouTube is a fucking son of a whore goddamn piss-taking shithouse and i hate it so very, very, very much. oh god really. i really do. absolute piece of shit abomination corporate wank stain sonovabitch. waste of time.

whore bag whore bag whore bag whore bag whore bag whore bag

Me too, MA. Me too.

It's a massive shitload of fuck. Especially when you get the un-skippable ads. Thing is, we've got no other alternative so we have to deal with this shit.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAA THIS FREE THING THAT WORKS PRETTY DAMN WELL SOMETIMES WANTS ME TO WATCH ADS AND ALSO WANTS ME TO USE THEIR SERVICE ON THEIR TERMS WAAAAAAAAA I FEEL RIPPED OFF FROM ALL THE MONEY I SPEND TO USE THEIR SERVICE WAIT I DON'T DO THAT IT'S FREE VIDEOS AND I'M A VERY PETTY PERSON

That's my love letter to every single one of you.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAA I ALSO GET PISSED OFF WITH YOUTUBE ON OCCASION BUT IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN MY CONTRARY AND HIPSTER IMAGE I MUST SCORN THOSE WHO ADMIT THEIR FRUSTRATIONS WITH A FREE SERVICE BECAUSE ITS FREE SO I AM ABOVE IT BECAUSE I HAVE NOT ADMITTED TO THESE FRUSTRATIONS BECAUSE ITS FREEEEEEEE

that's my love letter to OANST.

also fuck youtube

I think MA was pissed off because the thing didn't work well at all, with all those freezes, which's true for me as well. They probably changed something at the time they fucked up comment system

“it’s free, therefore you’re not allowed to criticize or complain”

Don't be ridiculous. It's not like time has any value.

And at the end of the day, plenty of people depend on the accessibility of YouTube to pay the bills. Every step downhill is a slice out of their paycheque. Is it so wrong to be concerned on their behalf?

time spent watching ads and reloading videos is time that could be spent masturbating or complaining about watching ads on YouTube and not masturbating. my time is valuable.

If your livelihood is dependent on Youtube, you need to get a fucking job.

Edit: Does Youtube freeze up? Yup. Do they have really smart people constantly trying to make it work better? Yup. Your excuses for throwing a four page hissy fit about a free product are absurd.

Oh for fuck's sake shut up. You say stuff like this all the time, and it becomes less and less funny. We all know you say this just to feel better and you just can't notice that some youtubers earn more money than you

Their intentions were never to make it work better. They couldn't give less a fuck whether it works good or not, as long as it generates their income

and what are your excuses for giving a shit?

also i haven't actually given any excuses for throwing a four page hissy fit. soooo what the fuck?

It's not meant to be funny. If you're really doing nothing more than making shitty videos for Youtube, and that's your only source of income, you have somehow failed to understand how life works. Get. A. Fucking. Job.

I promise you they want it to work better, so that more people will use it, with as little issue as possible, so that it creates more income for them.

Edit: I'm going to speak a little more clearly to Varrok's point, and ignore MA's since he didn't really say anything anyways. You're children. Whiny, obnoxious, tantrum throwing children, who expect everything to not only be handed to them, but for it to be handed to them exactly how they want it, on their terms. Yes, you can complain. Yes, you can say that something doesn't work the way you think it should. But that's not what you are all doing. This is no different than the disgusting entitlement issues you all display in the New N Tasty threads. Grow the fuck up. Life owes you nothing. Youtube owes you nothing.

Because you're a fucking life master, aren't you? Pffff

No. They earn money from ads. Not from videos. You have no problem watching ads on youtube. It's the videos which freeze. And users can do absolutely nothing about it, because yt has no real opponents so they can't just switch to another site, and the management clearly abuse that fact.

You have no reason to say that other than that's what you want to be the truth. You clearly have no idea how businesses are run.

As for the other shit you just spouted, I work a full time job, have my own home, and take care of the people I love. They never need to worry about whether they will eat, or have electricity, or heat, or if they will be able to see a doctor when they need to. I work a lot to make that happen, and I'm good at what I do. I'm not perfect, and I've made some rather large mistakes, but I'm back on track, and very happy.

I AM THE TRUTH

Give it a rest, Jesus fucking Christ.

I think you have an invalid definition of people who earn money from youtube videos. You probably think they're homeless people who don't give a shit about their families, live in a constant, paranoid fear of losing all of their money, put absolutely no effort whatsoever into making their movies and suck at it.

I don't think that at all. I do, however, understand that Youtube can be used as a very effective stepping stone in creating a career doing what you love. But.....it's a stepping stone. There is clearly no way that someone should rely on it long term to make their money. That's just irresponsible. The service itself, and the ever changing whims of the internet should scream to them that this is secondary until they can really start making it primary on services that are not Youtube.
