since YESTERDAY I´m missing my profile pic as OLD YouTuber ... THAT IS STUPID BLACKMAIL to switch to new layout ! I cannot believe it ... No WAY bloody ...TUBE !

[theblissfullone]

@Ilkamy ... this is a great idea! I did the 'report a bug' as you said ... I encourage everyone to take 2 minutes ( if that ) and do this. Every little bit helps.

Plain and simpel. THE NEW DESIGN IS BULLSHIT!

SCREW YOUTUBE

[Kenmorfdublin]

They should rename it OurTube to reflect who now controls it, it used to be you and me, not anymore.

Six years ago we removed our dish service. Lost interest in the dogmatic propaganda. Just loved YT. It has everyday people describing their experiences. It's opinion, education, entertainment...all of it. And it's US. When they go to their for profit TV...It will have lost it's charm. What I hope is that there will be some way to carry the banner for the older format by those who have a background in putting such things together. But for us, YT will go the way of the dish service.

...but what y,gonna do? we don,t own a stake in YT don,t pay a subsciption our only use to google is to look at adverts...still it was a good run and there,s no such thing as a free lunch (unless you,re an executive at goldman-sachs or wherever) :)

[AcidCod4Player]

anonymous should do something against this :3

[robtheslayer]

what did we do before youtube? we went to concerts, hung out in places, bars, pool halls bowling alleys, actually talked to people in person intead of making rediculous insults hiding behind a computer. i like youtube, but i can live with being here less. i will boycott the bs they will try to steer me towards. i get that they want to make money. but anything advertised i on these new "professional" channels i will go out of my way to not buy it. im going outside now. its been too long.
