Is anyone having the issue where if you watch a YouTube video and then go to a different page, leave it stable for several hours, then go back to the watch page for that previous video, the video doesn't even play? Then you have to refresh the page in order to play the video?

Does anyone else have this problem? I can't remove any video from my watch history. It's so annoying! Does anyone know how to fix it?

I've got an internet speed upgrade.... scratch that... and expensive internet speed upgrade against my will (long story) and I still managed to get that error a couple times. Overall, videos play smoother and I can load and watch a 10 minute thing in less than a half hour... but every so often, it just stops streaming.

I've been shouting about this for the past year. It's all on their end and it has to do with the crappy software they're using and I'd bet the telecoms have a nice piece of that pie too.

Guys, what do I do with this creator studio crap? I can't even go to my history or likes anymore. Can I get rid of it?

Maybe this is just for Chrome users, but now I have this issue with playing a playlist in full screen on Autoplay. After about three-four videos, it just starts skipping ahead one video every time, and it's inconvenient. What's the deal?

Youtube has bizarrely been downgrading in its website quality. Now, you can't reply to a user, you have to put a + sign and try to find their name. The posts aren't organized by dates until you want it to, and the bar at the top where you could click on your channel or your favorites, or your watch later and liked videos has disappeared :mad:! What's next, you're not aloud to comment on a video unless you like it?

I can't believe it.

I just can't believe it.

After all these months (matter of fact, it's been pretty much over a year now), YouTube has finally admitted that... tabs don't work anymore. In fact, they've announced that tabs have been retired altogether. Yeah, I pretty much figured that out when new vids weren't turning up in search results, no matter what keywords you searched.
