YouTube is trying hard to shove their video suggestions into my face.

Video suggestions are on the watch page, inside the video player after playback, and even inside the embedded video player when paused.

Sorry, YouTube, I am not interested in your suggestions before I have even finished watching the current video!

    I can't even find things on YouTube anymore because it's too busy suggesting things to me

    Such a useless platform now

    I also started bookmarking YouTuber pages with my browser because subscribing doesn't work in YouTube either lol

    It's trying too hard to manipulate everyone 😔

    I love how I got bell notifications for videos I apparently cannot watch due to copyright. Hope they collapse as a company promptly. What a joke.

    @jestdotty While YouTube is evil, it isn't actually responsible for the completely fucked-up copyright situation. While a lot of people think that Google makes the law, that isn't actually the case.

    @Oktokolo You don’t say.

    Then again, google has considerable lobbying power. They generally don’t care about copyright law though, just anti-spying (and anti-woke) legislation.

    You really think anything needs to "try", especially hard, to manipulate nowadays? There's literally a recognised profession of "influencer"... despite how on target the name is, people still openly admit to following these people. I briefly had an employee that was trying to qualify watching "slice of life" bs as valid studying english... despite the influencers not being anywhere near native english... the content in those is like pooring acid on your brain. I literally couldnt watch one for beyond 2 minutes... and have zero clue why anyone would ever want to... but the views are millions.

    @Root They actually tried to use their lobbying power against copyright laws a lot. They just failed hard and adapted to the situation. Google might be big, but the media MAFIAA is still bigger.

    @jestdotty maybe you missed the part of me explicitly stating that they weren't anywhere near native english speakers...

    If you think that crap is "fine", either we have seen very different takes on that, or I reeeeeally want to study you and find out how you can function after the brain acid wash.

    @jestdotty well the language matters cuz you responded to my post that was specifically referencing the former employee trying to qualify it as language practice...

    Im also not sure wtf youre talking about that you claim to have told me "point blank"... but now I'm much less concerned with any judging you've done towards me on other posts, since you don't seem all that coherent.

    Take advantage of the current rise of Bitcoin and recover your lost Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. I took that step recently by contacting (backendrecover AT rescueteam DOT c o m). He did an awesome job for me by helping me recover all my lost $230,000 worth of Bitcoin, which I thought I had lost forever because people made me believe lost cryptocurrencies can never be recovered. That is a big fat lie. All you need is assistance from the right tech professional, and you will be happy again.

    @jestdotty my grandfather invented the self-playing piano... the version after the holes in paper scrolls. He invented a lot of other things, like pieces to the paint spray assembly on many modern automobile assembly lines, too. You're welcome to look him up. Raymond A. Vincent michigan, usa.
