I feel like the downfall was earlier than that, but the thing is yt is gonna make bank regardless

The old YT messaging system was so simple. The mess we have now is still limited.

All these damn kids watching grown-ups open kinder egss smh

YEYYESS

YT PMS

Seems like they removed more than they've added

Why get rid of them???

Or at least worthwhile things

I feel like that answers itself, actually, Youtube PMs

Yt was a real social platform with pms and video responses and now it's... Well it exists

Channel comments were straightforward, but that feature was also adjusted.

Yes, I hate how old comment chains are broken now

There was one upgrade.

oh yeah, there use to be an @ feature, but that's indeed broken now

I do like the hearts system tho

Yeahhhh

Oh the hearts is nice I think

The comment replies attached and collapsed underneath the base comment in chains.

Creators can put something on top by doing it

And pinned comments

Pins and favorites by the uploader

But there's very little yt has done to make it a good experience

At least they don't block us from adding links to comments now.

I may be misremembering but I swear liking and disliking comments wasn't always a thing?

I had to space out my text so I could refer to external websites.

And it was more about the individual creators rather than TV shows and big companies

that's always been a thing, i would think

Disliking, I don't this was.
