Not to worried about it. If Twitch gets bought out and becomes terrible a alternative will rise.

Man, Youtube really sucks dicks now. I seriuslly hope getting an alternative to it is possible.

No it doesn't. The main purpose of it a.ka watch videos is still there. Only making comments system has suffered and nobody cares about your opinions anyhow lol.

Also hopes Google magically gets its hands on Facebook soon too.

Comments system is the one that has suffered the least.

Constant ads, G+ being shoved in your face everywhere, logging you into your google account, rather than your YT one, the travesty of what they've done to actually giving you the videos from people you've subscribed to, etc...

To me the account management stuff is the worst offender. I have to follow a nonsensical and very specific list of actions just to log in with my old YT account, because my old YT account was linked to my gmail address and I also have a G+ account due to my gmail address.  When I want to log in to YT and I'm already logged in to gmail, YT never lets me log in with my old YT account right away.

This, why do I have to keep having to perform annoying clicks just to switch to my old youtube account only because I refused to make a google+ account? Holy fuck. Not to mention the increased frequency of ads on videos lately. Not that twitch currently is any better in that department.

I found that annoying to begin with. But I have a gmail account and just re-subscribed to everything on the new one. Now I have no issue with it.

Adblock.

Get G+ don't use it. GG

And instead of being lazy and checking out the newest content released you have to actually make 2 more clicks and go to the uploaders channels.


Ye....suuu bad.

Just because you don't care doesn't mean it's unreasonable functionality to keep using Youtube exactly as I've been using it in the past.
