    @Captainturtle @YouTube I remember in year 9, 1981, we were all listening to crap quality bootleg cassette recordings of REM concerts.

    @YouTube you got some explaining to do, autopay isn't working on my tv anymore, no matter if the setting is on or off, I reset the app and deleted it and redownloaded it, so if you could please fix this glitch that would be amazing

    @BestDrWho @seanpertwee @YouTube Do you think anyone got any work done in that spinning control tower? You'd be walking along holding onto the walls all the time, or plastered to the windows, praying the glass wouldn't break.

    @YouTube This is terrible. Misinformation is rampant nowadays and dislikes can stop me from watching a video that may hage "facts" that are wrong.

    @BenedictMPWhite @Tony__Heller @YouTube Apparently Biden garnered more votes than Obama. Yet when Putin or Assad get elected by decent majorities the cry of 'fix' goes out.

    @YouTube can I tell you something when the video ends on YouTube it takes me back to the home screen instead of moving on to the next video I hope you can fix this problem

    @HappyCloudGamer @YouTube Yes it runs and looks great on Xcloud. Same for Gears 5 and Halo 5. Dirt 5 runs great but is a little grainy. Rage 2 is a glitchy and laggy mess. Mostly good so far. This is the worst version we'll ever have, ie it's going to get better.

    @wrobinson101 @BBCRadio4 Most faults are caused by moving parts. People should feel confident to make DIY mechanical repairs. @YouTube has thousands of repair videos with step-by-step instructions. They can save money and give personal satisfaction. Invest in some quality tools. Screwdrivers for Xmas!

    @Monchandmich @YouTube I’m having the same issue on my PS3. I just wanna drink beers and listen to tunes. Been about 50 minutes now where I have to find a new song. Was working fine before.

    @benedictrogers @YouTube There are 3 things I will probably never know. 1. Whether there life on other planets 2. How magnets work 3. Why THE world's worst mass murderer has his face on permanent display in a country occupied by intelligent people.

    @christo09995183 @JayzTwoCents @YouTube What CPU do you have? If you already have the AIO put it in. It probably wont “help” much but it will cool your CPU a bit more, and I like the look of it. I had one on my 9700k which I didnt overclock, just enabled MCE, kept it nice and cool

    @BlueJays @youtube has the worst broadcasting of a baseball game ever. My 11 and 13 year olds could do better!

    So the @YouTube app on #NintendoSwich is broken bad and autoplay no longer works, it instead just closes the video! I hope this gets fixed soon, pretty bad bug to introduce. #YouTube @TeamYouTube

    @YouTube can you guys figure out why your playlists don’t auto play right now?? Been troubleshooting for hours, and nothing. One video, and back to Home Screen. I need a fix ASAP please!

    @thegeekinside71 @YouTube I agree, and it’s becoming so normal for some, they can’t see the problem anymore.

  • AltoonaYerPiano
    Matthew Villani (AltoonaYourPiano) (@AltoonaYerPiano) reported

    @YouTube Now a video with more comments than likes will be seen as getting "ratio'd" as if it was equivalent to dislikes. It'll give high comment engagement a bad first impression. In a little over 11 years we went from a five-star rating system to a broken dislike button.

    @Wagnark77 @YouTube Same thing here. Its all on. But still not working

    @samanthakellii @YouTube @YouTubeCreators Considering Logan Paul got little more than a slap on the wrist for uploading a video containing footage of a dead body, I can't say I'm surprised that action hasn't been taken against her. I fully agree that she needs to be removed and offered help.

    @sweetjamesjons @KyleKulinski @YouTube See you're a great example of America spend more time attacking the messenger than actually dealing with the issues. There can be things that I disagree with him about and still address the issues.

    @MegamanRA @YouTube Yeah that part was annoying as hell! It also didn’t help out that my Izanagi Picaro was at level 22 instead of 26. I had to improvise in order to defeat Kaneshiro.
