YouTube Reviews Summary

YouTube's reputation is increasingly marred by customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to excessive advertisements and perceived censorship. Users express frustration over the platform's reliance on ads, which disrupt viewing experiences and lead many to consider alternatives. Complaints about account suspensions and a lack of transparency regarding community guidelines further exacerbate concerns about customer service. While some users appreciate the vast array of content available, the overall sentiment indicates a growing discontent with YouTube's management practices, prompting calls for more user-friendly policies and a potential shift to competing platforms.

Used to be ok
October 16, 2020

I used to use this site all the time but their recent policy of deleting videos dubious of covid tells me that they no longer have any interest in free speech.
But then this is google and they are now effectively state supported.

Good Time Pass
October 16, 2020

This app is fantastic for cooking, schooling, and many more things to learn. It was the strongest time-pass ever in this pandemic. I've been to many more comedies, jokes, cooking classes. And learned a lot as well.

I'm not sure about YT because there were VERY toxic people (LisaGamingRoblox for example. She's very toxic.) and a bunch of inappropriate and bad channels that YT hasn't banned yet (if you know Bella Delphine, her channel hasn't been banned, yet she posted inappropriate stuff.). Also, if you're using YT for free, you would be pissed off with the ads coming before or during the video you're watching. (I was gonna watch scary stuff, Roblox Piggy stuff and all that until the ads ruined it.) It's a great app for posting videos, but all of the stupid stuff and COPPA ruined YouTube. I have mixed feelings about the site. -_-
ALSO, don't forget about the bots that spam comments on EVERY single video. (recent bots have inappropriate content.)

Youtube bans free speech. They are very biased against conservative comments. I'm not a Republican and I watch them ban and censor many conservative comments. Any legislation against them and their censorsorship possible should be levied asap. They don't even respond to challenges against their bans. They call them appeals and are totally liberal biased and prejudiced toward the democratic party.

Youtube is really cool but I hate that they remove comments and videos. They've also added more ads lately.

BEST VIDEO WEBSITE EVER!
September 17, 2020

It is the best website right now where you will find whatever you want. The fact that it only gets better every time is insane. The only issue is the amount of ads displayed in between videos that may be a bit annoying some times. Thanks.

Just Average
September 14, 2020

It's a great basis for watching videos, but the Algorithm heavily glosses over smaller channels that work there butts off for what they do and hardly get any gain off of it. :(

It's gone downhill after pushing the live chat now most people use that only and comments never get seen as a result so if you have something good or thought provoking FORGET IT! I don't blame YT/Google though they just went with what they thought was the trend as people want dumb computers in their pocket.

Very bad
August 27, 2020

Too much ads if you are using it for free. 5 years ago it was much more user friendly. You also cant skip this ad.

$#*! YOUTUBE
August 25, 2020

YouTube used to give you one ad once every 7-12 minutes. But now it gives DOUBLE ADS EVERY TWO MINUTES! I watch more ads than actual videos at this point and I am about ready to sue YouTube or get it shut down.

Good
August 25, 2020

Youtube is perfect because there are lots of useful items in it. It shows every news, series, movies, and so on. Usually, all we ask is answered. The features are also good. If we are trying to know or understand it is a good thing about us. Using hands-on experience helps explain the definition.

I watch youtube almost every, single $#*!ing day. I use it when I'm sad, when I'm angry or happy. I watch videos of youtubers to get me in the joyful mood, but at the start of this week, it's all been blocked from me.
I am a danish citizen, ever since I was a kid I've been able to watch almost every single youtube video I could that wasn't demonitized, but now it's all $#*!ed.
I can't listen to the music that help me go through my day and you know what? It's not only the $#*!ing music that has been blocked, no.
Some videos that I have been able to watch for YEARS, has now been blocked for me. There were no copyrighted music in the video, there were nothing that could have gotten it blocked. Because other people I've spoken to online, are perfectly capable of watching it.

The $#*! is going on Youtube? Do you know how many people you're losing on your platform right now? Yes perhaps only one little small country full of millions, but it's not fair, that just because two companies had a disagreement, an entire population is now unable to watch what they used to love. I'm actually $#*!ing crying because of this. Me as a 15 year old, is not allowed to watch some videos, just because I'm $#*!ing Danish?
How about you get your $#*! together Youtube, and come to a fair agreement that doesn't harm a whole country, huh?
