    @YouTube Dearest YouTube. I have been a part of your platform a while. I got breast cancer in 2017 and because of the two years of infusions my body was broken. Inside. Outside. My mind races with fear of getting sick again..1/3.

  • Ezaheilbron Eza (@Ezaheilbron) reported

    @JimmyBroadbent @YouTube Which goes to show how awful the only alternative has become. Yup I'm looking at you twitch.

  • e11_anna Anna E (@e11_anna) reported

    @iaindooley @YouTube Yep. It doesn’t work anymore unless linked to a person’s videos or people not well known. Watched a good one, could never find again as the person is one of those sliced & used

    @machalaboi @davido @YouTube He should fix up lol

  • jon7b S (@jon7b) reported

    Watched a phone repair & cooking video today and I can just guess if the end result is well worth it because dislikes are gone. Once again a big🖕 to @Google and @YouTube for choosing greed over user experience. The worst UX change they made in a while!

  • mugoz12 Mugos (@mugoz12) reported

    @YouTube My YouTube account was hacked and was booted out as admin how do I fix it issue I don’t even have YouTube contacts except here on Twitter please help..

  • jadedbbutterfly Jess 📷 (@jadedbbutterfly) reported

    @YouTube WHY ARE MY CAPTION OPTIONS NOT STAYING THE SAME VIDEO TO VIDEO?!?! It's pissing me off to no end having to redo them EVERY video.... please fix this!!!

  • TheCZghost CZghost (@TheCZghost) reported

    @YouTube @streamys @larrayxo I'm not sure if this is worth of watching. After your failed attempt for last Rewind (most disliked video), you hid the public dislike counter. I know you're mad that your video was disliked, but that's not the issue. The issue is you took it personally, whereas it was just bad.

  • malcolm_reavell Malcolm Reavell (@malcolm_reavell) reported

    @MerryMichaelW @UBIMatters @YouTube A JG is an automatic stabiliser, and a wage floor setter. UBI does not address systemic inequality. You may add numbers to the bank accounts of the poor, but the rich still control the economic system which will erase the UBI value. That’s the bigger problem

  • PrawalGangwar Prawal Gangwar (@PrawalGangwar) reported

    Likes to dislikes ratio on @YouTube was the indicator of content quality for educational videos. Removing the dislike count is just an added burden which may make me reconsider if I should look up stuff on youtube. Please stay a video search engine. Netflix, tiktok already exist.

    @glennkirschner2 @YouTube Hello Sir, There should be no pre-deals made. When people have information to help then all that information will be taken into consideration in regards to how serious a Charge they receive,... 1/2
