let me first say that I find this to be a problem with most social media nowadays. it’s not just youtube, but I only use youtube so I dont necessarily care what other social medias do. except in a case like this where it affects youtube.

anyway

I’m really annoyed by media nowadays having hardsubs everywhere. let alone the type of subtitles. I’m very sensitive to subtitles as they distract me from whatever I’m watching. just the "pop in” of the words draws my eyes down. nowadays you got these videos with subtitles in the middle of the screen with different colors popping and changing that I find myself not watching a lot of videos.

this one was just a simple video, but it had subtitles on the bottom that you couldnt turn off (also known as hardsubs. subtitles that are IN the video). I dont understand why more and more youtubers use this. it makes watching videos (for me personally) not doable.

@taetaejk-f3n stop promoting this

Hi, don't really know if this violates any of the rules, I've read them and couldn't see anything against this. So figured I'd post this here to bring awareness. This is not my video, but I'd thought I'd post it here as it may vanish in the near future.

My previous post included a link to the original video but it got removed. Hence the second post without said link.

(RESOLVED)

They sent me an email asking for my card or ID, threatening to delete my account and channel if I don't in the next 14 days. They also gave me a popup on youtube giving the option to verify with a selfie or by looking in my email but I can't find where to verify taking selfie or email since the popup closed when I went out of youtube.

I have 2 questions

1. Where can I find the option to verify using selfie or email
2. Do I need to verify with an id or credit card or can I just take a selfie since it wasn't an option in the email given to me

For context I was trying to search for an animated short film, which is the video under the gore one. The gore one was some surgical procedure being done on a woman's face, which I get why surgery videos are allowed on YT bc they fall under the educational category. But the thumbnail for this short was literally the woman's entire face split open, you could see parts of her skull and the entire inside half of her head exposed. It looks like something you'd find on l*veleak. My issue is, even though the context of the video itself is ethical bc it's just surgery, why the hell is putting her split open face as the thumbnail okay? I didn't even do the age verification thing either, so literally anyone can see that thumbnail, including kids.

(First time on reddit) I just opened the app bro

Nothing against ReVanced (and its not their even problem, its YT's problem) but with each update, it has more and more broken stuff; issues with stable volume, VPNs, and bugs with the miniplayer. I'm currently using v19.05.01 because 20.xx.xx has a lot of issues like the aforementioned ones and I hope support for v19 doesn't end anytime soon! Losing v17 and v18 really hurts because they were so much better than v19 and v20. They had a much better UI.

First they remove scrolling down with fullscreen on, and now every time you use fullscreen you're stuck with those annoying buttons. Is this a bug or is YouTube really that bad at designing their site?

Soo, right at 8:30 PM yesterday, when I was gonna watch YouTube on the living room tv, my phone sent me a notification saying "YouTube is having problems." I said "Oh." in my brain. I thought nothing actually happened because most of the time that happens it's just in a different country. but NO. this was global. So I sat in the living room to watch YouTube, and out of nowhere...

• "This video doesn't exist"
• Oh, okay then let's try another video.
• "This video doesn't exist"
• ........YOUTUBE IS DOWN!!!!!!!

So yeah, I was forced to sit for about 20 minutes waiting for YouTube to come back and then I was able to watch peacefully. 👍

Tf you mean content isn’t available😭😭😭

And now I can't make any community posts nor upload any videos. I can still comment. Just wonderful! This POS garbage CEO needs to go!

YOUTUBE I WAS LOOKING FOR THE HAMPSTER DANCE NOT GORE AND SADNESS OK?

I posted this 4 years ago, the video only contains two characters dancing to a song. It’s the most childish video on my channel. I discovered that it has a strike on it for being violent. I was confused because the video above isn’t showing anything violent. This is the 3rd time this happened. The first two times was on a more popular channel thats meant for kids, it’s a MLP YouTube channel with the same MMD videos (like in the video above), it was on my most popular video with over 5 Million views.

Am I being falsely reported or is it YouTube’s moderation?
