Google has caused so much problems with Youtube over the years like removing private massages, giving the website a crappy search engine that always loops and forced video recommendations. I've never understood why it had to get worse over time and they never cared to even fix the websites flaws.


The terrible garbage YouTube video recommendations that they like to force on people.

1.Modern Saturday Night Live

2.Try not to Laugh

3.Mr.Bean

4.Watchmojo.com

5.The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

6.Peppa Pig

7.America's Got Talent


There comes a point when a website must revamp entirely to get rid of all of the infamous mistakes.

It must be something to do with your settings, I never get any of that stuff recommended to me, as soon as I get onto Youtube it brings up the stuff it knows I'll watch, it'd be nice if it didn't recommend videos that I already watched like a year ago though.

Youtube *has* become very awful, I don't think there is anyone here disagreeing with that.

Ah right. TBF I imagine Eon's plan is to periodically accuse various posters of being socks of yours, essentially a 'no you' that just takes more time and effort on Eon's part.

I don't use the built in Chrome app.

It feasts on memory and battery life with all of it's tied into other apps functions.

And it is less customizable than Mozilla for Android. or Mozilla and Opera for desktops and notebooks.

Indeed, the sockinghere over the decades has at times been far more extreme. I and another guy once cause Raz to actually stop new accounts for more than six months. We had a war using activation codes and pretty much were making as many docks at once as we wanted. You can't do that now...

I keep getting CNN, Guardian, and Washington Post recommendations. Like the complete opposite of my viewing history.

I have none of those features to use as I refuse to be a member of modern Youtube.

I never get any recommendations like that. Every one I get is based on my search and watch history.

It sucks getting forced recommendations because its crap I do not care about.
