Naman Jain (@jain_naman07) reported@rishsamjain As an active @YouTube viewer I can say that the quality of videos has decreased much.

DragonWarriorEncore (@BenB4ever) reported@YouTube, why does it lower my quality whenever I watch videos, it lowers it until it reaches its lowest maximum limit. Its annoying, I want my videos to be high quality and not a single setting allows me to do it. Can you please do something about this.

PTX Librarian 🕊⚖️🤍 (@LisaSteiner_PTX) reported@Ldy_Honeycomb @SecretHarmony28 @YouTube I saw someone suggest it if PTX had been around for ABBA week on The Masked Singer.

Ardana Gueicha🇦🇷 | Watching QSMP rn (@ArdanaGueicha) reportedA have a question: Why @YouTube allows people to upload a whole irl funeral like is a cooking video but demonetize videos of people that work their asses off just because they reuse some clips? Care to explain?
-
shnick1985 (@shnick1985) reported@FutureVisionGem @ShaunTheCHB @YouTube For Silent Hill 2, yeah that’s true. Silent Hill 3 on the other hand had the bulk of the issues in the first place, I’m not sure if the patch fixed them all. Not to mention, you’re stuck with a new set of voice acting that’s widely regarded as being inferior to the original…
