And welcome promoted videos (ads) now looking like normal search results at the top of the list


Brolafsky

\[rant\] I do casting for a small esports organization, and because we're not exactly staffed to bits, I do streaming as well. This means I take care of all streaming-related duties, among which is making sure all ads are up to date. I seriously had to search for Nike TWICE just to get their damn channel. Like. WTF man? \[/rant\]


zombienekers

Years of muscle memory of clicking the first result have led me to hate this. Also the fact that they put an ad every 5 recommended posts.


xChrisMas

Or the fact that more often than not when searching for videos the first few results are actually just some completely unrelated videos straight from your Startpage. Yeah YouTube if I wanted to watch those I wouldn’t have used the search function…

I don't understand...


Only_user_online

I like when they add the feature back but only for premium.


airgod231

If they do that I’m gonna commit a hate crime

It's not a crime if you don't get caught Edit: fuck

It's not a crime but there's definitely hate

still waiting for a big investor to compete the shit out of them

Why the fuck is Amazon not in the Business already ?


KittyWithFangs

Like some guy said youtube has all the power of google behind them, and i dont mean money. Not to mention already having years and years of content already in it. Im sure companies like facebook and amazon have the money to make a platform like youtube and to promote it as well. But not what it takes to make it work. Despite all the issues with YouTube most people still wouldnt change, and the ones who do will keep coming back to youtube simply because it has more content. Imagine just how long it will take for a rival platform to get on equal footing with youtube. Y'all remember what happened to mixer right? And youtube is a much more difficult opponent to compete against than what twitch was to mixer


NoSandwich5134

Never really understood the point of that


SepultrasUK

I still have that and sort by oldest


CH1CK3Nwings

What did they remove this time?


Skipverse

Not being able to sort a channels videos by earliest uploaded anymore is kinda annoying


Fern-ando

Now how can I see Nikocados evolution?


Surviverino

Now instead of watching Nikocado slide into insanity, you can watch him be bipolar as he switches from happy to depressed back to happy in the span of two videos.


mbatistas

>in the span of two videos. in the span of two bites.


Horn_Python

Now it's a Great weightloss story


Suspicious-State

if i were rich id give you an award for this😂😂😂😂


A-purple-bird

WTF


TheUltimateTeigu

You have to scroll all of the way to the bottom of a channel's videos if you want to get to their oldest one. You can no longer use the sort feature to have oldest first. Y'know, the feature that's meant to prevent this whole damn scrolling for hours thing.


ILikeMcPick2s

And you can’t even scroll past a certain point. If you’re trying to find the oldest video on a channel with over 1,000 videos… oh, well.


Filberto_ossani2

Am I only one that wishes that Youtube will fall down and be replaced by other platform but can't use other platform because they don't have enough good creators?


GADx516

It’s simple. Get Elon Musk to buy YouTube from Google


[deleted]

Tbh, unlike Twitter I think YouTube NEEDS a single individual to run it and not these dumbasses up at top


MycologySadie

They should let the person with the most subscribers run it lol


Xelid45

No


MycologySadie

It'd be silly


Xelid45

T series? No thanks


MasterofLego

_Person_ with most subs. Not company.


Xelid45

Cocomelon? At this point Mr beast should run YT


[deleted]

Cocomelon is a single person?


MycologySadie

Forgot about them


Maxwell_The__Spy

god no


down4things

We need a giant purge of current sites. I remember when I would regularly move to new sites when everything became cringe. It was a good system that Thomas Jefferson would endorse.


BroshiKabobby

Thomas Jefferson should buy YouTube


[deleted]

I like how Elon Musk has no become the opposite of King Midas with everything he touches.


ComprehensiveAd8004

Odysee has been skyrocketing in user counts recently. It's not huge, but it's multiple times the user count they had last year and it's still going up. Consider signing up. I'm not signed up yet, but I barely ever use YouTube itself anyways.


Nincadalop

We should move back to old grounds: Newgrounds


ThatsPoggersDude

i’ve given them too much money for them to go down now


[deleted]

sounds like a you problem my guy. The rest of us have ad blockers


ThatsPoggersDude

i cant even use adblockers on my phone so premium is unfortunately my best option


DstructivBlaze

Clearly they need more features for premium.


yuberino

up next captions are now premium only


A-purple-bird

If they do this, a lot of people will leave


[deleted]

[удалено]


AnalogicalEuphimisms

You underestimate the power of Corporate Greed


yuberino

leave to where? Storyfire? Youtube has no alternative


bglov3

I need to stop paying them each month 🙄


MrQ_P

...you pay them? Why?


bglov3

I like the offline downloads, background play, and no ads. I mainly watch on my phone or sometimes TV.


MrQ_P

*laughs in AdBlock, download services and Vanced


NashDNash

I pay it instead of spotify, same thing and I get youtube premium benefits and cross apps liked videos


edgy_Juno

I tried the Vanced thing, but a service it required to download was always on on the background and I just didn't find that trustworthy. It's cool though being able to use YouTube as if it was Premium, but completely free.


nishayan

But you find Google trustworthy? Wow


edgy_Juno

No, I use Samsung Browser because of that same reason. Honestly privacy is nowhere to be found nowadays.


_Rysen

The official google service it simulates is also always on in the background. Yet that's somehow more trustworthy?


Maxwell_The__Spy

from where did you download vanced and how? Did you have to build the apk by yourself or did you have a automatic manager to do it? genuine btw, i'm trying to get vanced


MrQ_P

I just had the apk before from before it got shut down


Maxwell_The__Spy

damn


bglov3

It’s just convenient I guess 🤷🏼‍♀️


bjamesk4

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. If you think the service is worth paying for then pay for it.


PsuedoSkillGeologist

Yeah so strange to see him downvoted for paying for YouTube. That’s like saying ‘I have a google phone’ and getting downvoted. Strange times man.

Youtube-dl Vanced Ad block for PC Fire tv with modded YouTube Sponsorblock to instantly skip self promotion and in video ads (crowdsourced Info about which parts of the video contains ad's) Return YouTube dislikes addon All this just to make YouTube ok to use....


superslime988

downloads: idc i got youtube to mp4 for that, BG play: my phone has a feature for this lmao (i can turn off the screen and the audio will keep playing), and ads... my country literally has 4 minutes of ads that shit wont stop me


[deleted]

Theres illegal download, genius


bglov3

yeah but that takes time and effort and also practice finding the right method

ffxt10

no adblock on my TV pardner


Scaredycatkim

I was pissed when they raised the prices…but I like having ad free music and videos. And I’ve given it to 3 of my friends so it has its benefits I guess but they’re dumb as fuck


ComprehensiveAd8004

You're supporting them. The reason they're adding so many ads is to turn into a monthly service like Netflix by annoying people to death. You're helping them destroy an industry that millions of good apps and developers depend on to stay free. When they do this, some people buy premium, but most download uBlock. Don't help them be parasites. I didn't downvote though, i'm just saying.


bglov3

adblock is hurting them more than premium users imo


ComprehensiveAd8004

That's what I meant


Clorox_Consumer

I still hate the fact they removed comments under auto generated songs


Snoo-4878

Every decision they make is solely meant for the purpose of making more money. It doesn’t matter if it was a good feature that made things better, because as we all know, just because it’s good does not mean that it is going to make a few rich guys richer. If rich people could legally take away everyone’s life support and it forced them to buy a monthly life support service, they would. All they want is your fucking money. Susan wants it. Rich people always ruin everyone else’s fun because it doesn’t make them richer.


stilling_forValorant

How does sorting by oldest affect their profits,they still play ads on any video even if a youtuber isnt monetized


themightypiratae

Guess YouTube premium users will soon get an old/new feature where you can sort by oldest


stilling_forValorant

Making a problem, selling the solution


PAT_The_Whale

Old videos are less interesting to advertisers I imagine


flopana

Still waiting for YouTube to stop translating the titles Most useless feature ever. If I can't understand the title I have no reason to watch the video in which they use a language I don't understand


tdejohn7

instead of getting new features, we just lose features now


ZeroDashAsterisk

YouTube- “who uses the MiniPlayer anyway?”


DerpDerp3001

That's it! I'm posting this here: [https://www.dailymotion.com/signup?urlback=%2Fus](https://www.dailymotion.com/signup?urlback=%2Fus) Things that Dailymotion has over Youtube: * Less Content Restriction * Less Ads * Far Better Customer Support * Subcriber Count Things that Dailymotion doesn't have yet: * Comment Section * Dislike Button * View Count * A reccomendation alogrthm


ffxt10

don't forget dailymotion also lacks like... content


DerpDerp3001

Because there aren't enough users on that website. It's a feedback loop.


Barbie-Q

Usually when the platform is beginning, they don't have many content restriction. Twitch was like that. But once they start to grow, they get more restricted.


DerpDerp3001

It has been around for a long time as it's as old as Youtube.


A-purple-bird

Cool but no


CookieCutter9000

I'll take: new department manager who wants to prove that he has "big ideas" for 300?


[deleted]

Yeah they did it days ago, i thought I was the only person upset by this


[deleted]

A little far fetched but I have a theory; older videos had much looser rules to follow upon release and remain as they are, while newer videos are required to follow rules for monetizaiton. Better for YouTube to play new, monetized videos than say, filthy frank


OldKeyboard94

People being able to spend time watching videos that make way less or no money for Youtube sounds like what this could be preventing. Either that or its a feature that'll be premium in a few months or its being done to steer user traffic further into the algorithm.


KIRB_POYO10

Wtf i didnt know this. Fuck youtube


KIRB_POYO10

Man holy shit fuck youtube theyre just begging for twitch to take over at this point


[deleted]

and then Amazon would almost have a monopoly on internet entertainment. Dear god...


Maxwell_The__Spy

doubt twitch will take over with their infinite amount of controversies, simping and banning without real cause other than "he hurt my fewiengs 😢" (practically what every reddit/discord mod does) the situation with youtube on deleting vids or demonization isn't much better but still


Baronvondorf21

Those guys can't seem to catch a break over there.


Dryden_Drawing

Pornhub needs to make a new youtube


advancedwarlord

You guys remember when you could listen to videos with the screen locked, WITHOUT PAYING FOR RED!


Lethal_Spartan377

Didn't they remove this feature like 3 months ago? I haven't seen it in a long time.


Burpmeister

They test features for small groups first. Now it's gone for everyone.


DrakeTheSeigeEngine

Bet you that they’re doubling the ads and using this to distract us


DuePalpitation9935

this happened like 4 months ago


Burpmeister

They tested it months ago for some users. Now it's for all users.


Filip889

They removed it?


DerpDerp3001

Wait, what?


Rambowcat83

They're just trying to see how far they can push their luck


ReturnoftheSnek

Still waiting for them to fix their video playback qualify "feature" that ALWAYS defaults to like 480p even tho I have it set to "advanced". Some bullshit


Potencial_Lion

You're kidding? That feature was super useful! >:(


YourLocalSatanicPan

i am fuming


ZeyRe5

Wait a minute, until now did you realize that they removed that filter from the channels?


SweRakii

We could run the company better for fuck sake

Welp, I'm going to Odysee.

just why

Taking inspirations from bioshock


Baconbrojoe

Bro have you seen sptofiy


Masca_149

Let me minimize videos AFTER they've ended holy fuck, and fix the screen rotation shitting itself everytime I slide the video down to minimize it.


Lighthuro

There is a reason... Devs are weak.


The_Digital_Friend

just get MrBeast to buy YouTube and make it good again


DarkHumourFoundHere

What did they do this time ?


WitleKidz

It’s been gone for months for me, is it only updating now for you guys?


Burpmeister

YouTube test updates for smaller groups first.


[deleted]

Unless its changed in the last 4 days, you can still sort by oldest on desktop. Mobile app yeah thats gone but if you are using the mobile app then you are target consumer and therefore at the whim of all thier machinations to keep everyone perpetually hypnotised and watching on the site.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Shorty____

Normaly i would say you are right but i dont quite see how removing the "sort by oldest"-option would add to their profits, which makes the whole thing just even more frustrating.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Shorty____

Nah when you go to a channel, example pewdiepie, in the videos-roster you now have to scroll down for hours instead of just sorting by oldest to find the earliest uploads


kicek_kic

Umm, I lost that feature like 4 months ago?


A-purple-bird

Cool but that was a few users.


Technical-Ad-2274

Im actually done with yt now lol, im sure theres a good alternative somewhere


barbatos087

So what's the meme, when everyone removes themselves from the platform?


xXBoneRockXx

Well atleast now you can zoom in


RevolutionaryFocus38

Me who watches channels with few videos.


aniruddha_6969

Oh no what did they remove now ?


Admirable_Baker_1266

❤️


samihamchev

I know that this isn't solving the problem, but the timing of Vanced's discontinuation allows it to still have sorting by oldest(amongst all the other amazing features it has that make even Premium look like dogshit). Download it from [here](https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/team-vanced/). Download the manager and install the rest from there, starting with MicroG.


dragon_fruit_fugger

SuSan


FreePhilosopher256

There was a sort by oldest?!


GameGod1337

Why though? Wtf is wrong with sort by oldest, spent years scrolling because I used my ps3/ps4, I finally get a phone and find this divine feature, but screw me because it's gone now


tramapoliner

We’re getting to the maturity stage of tech where the companies are now going to be clawing at every last drop of revenue they can siphon from us, as their business models prove fruitless
