    @ElNajeX @YouTube Download NewPipe or Adblocker. If you wanna have the same as Youtube, NewPipe. I'd recommend you to use V0.22.1 since the new update is Broken

  • VuxxVuxx Vux (@VuxxVuxx) reported

    @YouTube not sure what happened, but I can no longer watch PiP on YouTube. It’s showing the same “music cannot be played” error on EVERY vid, but I’m not watching music videos and I’m a premium family user anyways. Can we get a fix on this? Missing a paid feature! 🫤😩

  • TalkDbs the Honest Audiophile (@TalkDbs) reported

    BTW I didn't give approval for my DM messages to be displayed and I also didn't give approval for any of my discord servers messages to be displayed publicly. This is blatant bully tactics. @YouTube yo going to allow this to stand?

  • VanGamplaere It Takes A Village (@VanGamplaere) reported

    @chamkaurghag @YouTube WHY are u looking for dark matter, though? WHY do u say in an article, "We're the best at finding nothing!" As though u mock me for getting paid/having status or "power position" FOR DOING NOTHING?!?! Which is also a choice & part of the problem.. DOING NOTHING!

    @RemyFolks @YouTube Weird as **** they never issued no **** like this before. I can’t help but wonder what are they not telling us

  • JustSoTippy Tipster (@JustSoTippy) reported

    .@YouTube is so broken lately. Notifications not going out, premieres that are fully processed only playing in 144p, randomly greyed out PFPs, the mobile app prompting for Picture in Picture when you’re not trying to use Picture in Picture. Like…fix your **** @TeamYouTube! LOL

  • UnclePreme Mr.David®🇭🇹 (@UnclePreme) reported

    @YouTube why is my Pip not working? I have a premium account and it keeps saying something about Lucia content. Is it your app or Apple?

  • Marlon_Rugama Marlon Rugama (@Marlon_Rugama) reported

    Hey @YouTube I’m getting an annoying and very often message about PiP. Nice to know about PiP and I even tried to turn it on however, firstly there is not option available yet for me in Settings/General, secondly the message appears very often and it’s annoying. Please help

  • ampincivero Ann Marie Pincivero 🌻🇺🇦💙 (@ampincivero) reported

    @TRyanGregory @YouTube I only know basic chords. I used to have someone else play guitar & I just wrote & sang songs. I've written a couple of songs lately that just spilled out. So much on my mind. The world is so broken I feel like I have to scream or sing into the void even if no one listens...

  • AhmedElDahshan9 Dahshan (@AhmedElDahshan9) reported

    @SpeedWatkins @YouTube It kinda seems that Justin, like so many other christians, is eager to espouse the apologetic that atheism is as much a faith position as religion is, or that if atheism is based on faith then it’s intellectually worthless. If so, I wonder what does he think of Plantinga’s work?

  • berkalen305 Berk Erkan (@berkalen305) reported

    @YouTube yo YouTube why doesn’t the pip feature work on premium yet, every single video whether it’s music or not says it cannot be used on music, but I have premium it should. Also it doesn’t do it on premium anyway when I swipe up. What’s taking so long?

  • S4PANAP ana🌱 (@S4PANAP) reported

    @Kalefied @tanacamii @YouTube i guess my issue is that i think i like the twitch up where i can see the tops streams atm. i’m not a huge ludwig fan so it doesn’t make sense for me to subscribe and turn on notifs jus to be able to watch a stream once, i just wanted to see his new cat 😭

  • yopider11 yopi dermawan (@yopider11) reported

    please help me @YouTube @YouTubeCreators

  • Nina_Ledid Nina (@Nina_Ledid) reported

    @thecodaguy @coda_hq @YouTube Great content, Scott! I find that implementing access controls leads to the Cross-Doc connection breaking. Have you run into the same problem?

  • AshFeawen Ashley Feawen (@AshFeawen) reported

    @YouTube Fix the Lo-fi Girl channel! The copyright strike is a broken system.

  • sideshrays shray23 (@sideshrays) reported
