    @YouTube @markiplier Nice work with the false advertising Youtube

  • Mortifera1990 Inês Silva (@Mortifera1990) reported

    @YouTube @markiplier Really?? This is how you repay the hard work of these amazing people... really very low blow...

  • JordanxRones Jordan Rones (@JordanxRones) reported

    I love the platform but it’s impossible to overlook how pathetic and downright ****** @YouTube is on both the front and back end. Holding creators to strict, inconsistent standards while holding your policy team to no consistent standard yet pretending you do is a real problem.

  • DevilsA62669071 Devil’s Advocate (@DevilsA62669071) reported

    @dangilleon @matt_araiza @YouTube Qualified? That’s you? All I see from both attorneys in this matter is incivility and lack of professionalism. Posting communications on social media, back and forth insults, attacking other’s competence. Simply a terrible look and in neither client’s interests.

  • KatieMPatton Katie Patton (@KatieMPatton) reported

    .@YouTube needs to fix their Blocking feature. We need to be able to stop people from seeing our videos not just stopping them from commenting.

    @hausofhomos @R00strC0gburne @YouTube I get everywhere has issues but twitch and youtube are the absolute worse, twitch bans people for the dumbest reasons and youtube ***** people over. there has to be something better.

  • shazzmojo Sharron (she/her) (@shazzmojo) reported

    @stephenfry @YouTube Stephen, I have immense respect for you but do you not find the non-sequitur re: Facebook/Meta is a little odd given that Musk is attempting to buy their only competitor? Talk about AI influence. I feel I should ask you to blink thrice if you need help.

  • hausofhomos Bossypine HOLD MY HAND (@hausofhomos) reported

    @spooky_jim9 @R00strC0gburne @YouTube Yeah I remember when YouTube first became popular there was a website competing with it but failed… I think now with all the problems yt has a competitor might actually be successful and maybe it would give YouTube a kick in the *** to actually fix the problems it has

  • GalacticBruh bruh (@GalacticBruh) reported

    @YouTube @markiplier this is freaking nuts. after all the hard work he did for a segment, you removed him and used his face for advertising. This is awful

  • LisaV88279855 Wishing I was on a beach somewhere 🇺🇸🇨🇦 (@LisaV88279855) reported

    @KarlWeisker @YouTube Karl, 3 million subscribers doesn’t give a person a free pass to wrongly accuse people of murder! He’s obviously a talented musician…that’s what he should continue to focus on. He’s been on a real self destructive bent, and if you can’t see that, I can’t help you.

  • rodrakic Rod Rakic (@rodrakic) reported from Green Bay, Wisconsin

    Just learned how to tie a double Windsor knot. (Thanks @YouTube!) no way my uniform tie is even close to long enough to allow this to work. 🫤

  • sonerezh29 SONEREZH (@sonerezh29) reported

    @YouTube hmmm impossible to set darkmode, i use it since ever and today it doesnt work 🤔

  • Huyka635 Andrew N. (@Huyka635) reported

    @YouTubeGaming @YouTube You guys used markiplier as a selling point, and then take him out after the hours of hard work put in by him and his team because he calls youtube out for its unfair age restriction process. I have no other words to describe that besides petty and childish.

  • ThesnowyHannah Hannah Hickok (@ThesnowyHannah) reported

    @Dantydant2008 @YouTube I’m gonna help the North Koreans cause North Koreans are in big trouble

  • MyattKendra L4D2Fan13 (@MyattKendra) reported

    @markiplier @YouTube Fix your **** ffs. Do you realize the damages your causing to your OWN Program and now you take away Mark's segment without a warning?! This has gone too far!

  • SaraAna1989 Sara (@SaraAna1989) reported

    @ScottAdamsSays @YouTube I really wanted this to work but depersonalization just doesn’t seem to help.

  • hausofhomos Bossypine HOLD MY HAND (@hausofhomos) reported

    @spooky_jim9 @R00strC0gburne @YouTube And like if even the bigger creators like mark arnt safe then really no one is safe. We really need a competitor to YouTube and it’s not twitch tbh they have their own issues

  • mazenindark ༺ʍǟʐɛռ ɖǟʀӄ༻ (@mazenindark) reported

    @GoreGahan1 @YouTube @pmadtheband And so it’s dangerous over here too. We don’t have anything. If they could take away the air which we are breathing. They would do it. And yet there’s no even papers for making documents if you want to use them for making passports. Even the gov don’t issue passports anymore

  • AgtStoolPigeon TheRealVoiceOfReason (@AgtStoolPigeon) reported

    @theJeremyVine @YouTube @YouTubeCreators Social media really does need to do more. the most significant issue, they are here just to make money. They are not bothered if the stuff posted is true, or harmful. The only time they react is if a BIG customer raises an issue. $$$$$$$$$

  • Dantydant2008 Dantydant2015 (@Dantydant2008) reported

    @ThesnowyHannah @YouTube how are they in big trouble?

  • vsTARDISES Larubern / buy SRW 30 (@vsTARDISES) reported

    @YouTube Fix your algorithm, please, it's trying to recommend completely unrelated stuff (to both the videos and what I usually watch) on video pages now.

  • SoulCrusherKOZ Nate (@SoulCrusherKOZ) reported

    @YouTube @Sidemen Fix your system

  • EmperorJagade Jagade (@EmperorJagade) reported

    @terekotto06 @YouTube not a problem

  • chxriis69 chris / milky (@chxriis69) reported

    @YouTube fix your platform and your stupid ******* management. y’all a bunch of fuckasses.

  • JohnMul04744813 John Mullin (@JohnMul04744813) reported

    @schlichting1103 @YouTube It's easy to describe but difficult to explain why I think it would work. I'm calling for a fourth branch of the US gov't. Groups of twenty people select 2 representatives each. These reps each form new groups of other reps until they get 20 reps from the region of 800 people

  • MazingerMK12 MazingerMortalKombat12 (@MazingerMK12) reported

    @YouTube Basically I am not adding music to this Video, It's basically me and my friend doing a Wario, and Waluigi Roleplay. So if you can check that for me and maybe fix this issue that would be Great, because it's basically just some random people playing music.

  • bluelfsuma bluelfsuma (@bluelfsuma) reported

    @markiplier @YouTube Why not fix your problems instead of making them worse? Too many users are on the brink of migrating.

  • DannyMa46595005 Danny May (@DannyMa46595005) reported

    Why is it that I can never get actual help with my specific problem on my YouTube account? Your forum "support" page doesn't solve my issues with incorrect age verification. I really could use a real support option or a live chat @YouTube

  • upanddownthe blank (@upanddownthe) reported

    @YouTube I'm having issues purchasing YouTube Premium O-o
