Yo, @YouTube, what’s up with this jacked-up algorithm? I’m tryna binge one channel, and after EVERY clip, you sling me some random-*** video that’s got ZERO to do with what I’m watching. Fix your damn autoplay.
Shane Ivanovitch (@smiivano) reported 4 minutes ago
Thank you, @YouTube I wouldn't be able to fix my vehicles myself without you.
Moot (@Moot2108) reported 4 minutes ago
@YouTube What about if you’re trying to fix a bug on the YouTube app or website? Do you watch YouTube to learn how to fix the issue lol?

@symbiotics @Nina7Infinity @YouTube I've got the same gpu and if this is anything like Hogwarts, buyer beware. It took the modding community to fix that game and I am not holding out hope that this one fares any better.

So I got my channel taken down on YouTube, and I put a appeal up because I got taken down with only 1 strike and they just gave me the same automated email they do for strike and claim appeals. @YouTube has the worst support team all it is is automated emails.

@idtbh1 @YouTube Sometimes I think the Universe takes too long but I’m not in charge. They don’t let me poke eyes out anymore in this timeline and I work pointlessly just to get kicked in the face constantly so I have my issues but management (The Universe) it all right sometimes.

Very sad. You spend days making a video and posting it on YouTube, and after 5 to 10 days, that video still has 10 views. YouTube needs to fix its algorithm. None of their tutos really help creators. @YouTube @YouTubeCreators

@MrUniteUs @vdare @YouTube So unless all these blacks are working in government jobs, they're certainly not working anywhere else I can see. Except maybe fast food restaurants and retail & that isn't the definition of 'success' in anyone's mind.

@oneraceofearth @YouTube Truth wins in the end one way or another. Censorship is always bad for business in the long run. In many ways @YouTube is their own worst enemy.

@treezsteele @ABridgen @YouTube Those going to Private Healthcare, Nuffield Health, BUPA etc support the wages being an issue, more than the Healthcare profession itself.

@Khan_Dawah @freemonotheist @YouTube atheism is the absence of belief a god exists just because you met some atheists that would not follow said god doesn't change atheism into something else. the character in the books is a terrible person that commits genocide.

@YouTube How do you fix your broken copyright claim system? There are a ton of youtube videos on that but it doens't seem like you got it right yet.

@JeremyECrawford @ToddKenreck @YouTube invocation spells are also on the Arcane list, they have the option of simply taking them as a known spell and casting them regularly. Jump is pretty awful, and Alter Self at level 15? Eh! However Truesight is nice.
