Who Hates YouTube?

This platform just has one way in and its down.

The interface sucks. You open the app and boom there is one ad. When you open a video, boom 2 other ads. Then you scroll to see the comments, another ad. They are forcing the short format videos and when you search for anything now all you got is this thing. If i wanted to watch 30s videos I woudn't be on youtube, I would be on other platform.

Who more else agrees? Leve on the comments the things that irritates you the most on it, features that would with it add and how you would fix.

It is not hard to find out how to block ads. I see (very nearly) none.

If you can't install adblockers on the device you paid for, it's not YouTube you should be angry at.

Don't use the app. Use a device which is able to usefully run a browser which can usefully run capable ad-blockers.

The app is crap . The device which can't run that browser and its plugin, too. At least for using yt.
