I'm unhappy she's leaving the platform... you don't get to create a burning dumpster fire and walk away. She should have been held accountable for her actions, tarred and feathered. We forgive these monsters too quickly for leaving poop on a plate and forcing us to eat it.
I'm a bit shocked over the lack of news about her passing. They aren't even showing up when you search her name on youtube and I haven't seen it in the news or even tech news. In hindsight it's understandable why she stepped down, I always thought it seemed kind of abrupt.

Well as CEO she had the power to prevent the stupid "features" proposed but decided they were great, gave a thumbs up and here we are now with the atrocity that is the modern youtube.
removing her sends a message and seeing the reaction of the people (mostly cheering) is a pretty strong statement that they would have to INTENTIONALLY ignore to not notice. the rest of the management will have to think about that.
I would be happy to see RUclips embrace more mature content. Obviously, there are some things that won't be allowed, like insane blood, gore, actual murder, etc. I don't want to see RUclips turn into LiveLeak (RIP), but things like "Deep Web Browsing" and "Police Interrogations" shouldn't be demonetized, because this content is not only interesting, it brings in a lot of views, which is great for advertisers.
I wish that too. I watch true crime videos and I'm tired of words being censored (rape, murder and sexual assault). Those words are used in the news, but we can't say them on RUclips? More mature content would also mean some blood involved. Plus, I had someone had a video removed because of reenactment of the murder and there was no blood in the reenactment at all. That video got reinstated without the reenactment of the murder! Censorship is blocking people from talking about serious matter that needs to be talked about.

Whoever replaces Susan better undo the garbage changes she made in the last decade. Bring back dislikes. Allow all cursing, swearing and offensive / sensitive content. Only demonetize hard slurs and illegal things like threats. To protect children, just return to youtube kids / put a "mature content" warning like we see on art sites. No need to turn the entire site PG just because of dumb kids. Let creators be themselves and let them talk about controversial topics.
Sorry to break it to you but the new CEO is Susan's trusted Right Hand Man. The same person who created RUclips shorts, and he's interested in NFTs and Cryptos
Well now we know why she left, and I feel bad celebrating her departure. Lung cancer is horrible and it sucks she went through it. RIP Susan, you were a better CEO than the new one
I literally always forget that RUclips kids exists and every time I get reminded I realize that RUclips COULD basically be like it used to be if they just moved a lot of their changes there and (as Muta touched on) actually get parents to make sure their kids are on RUclips kids instead of mainstream RUclips. But that's more of an issue regarding common sense maybe.
My kids don’t use YTKids because I know how much gore and porn it shoves in children’s faces. I don’t trust it ONE BIT. „But what about the children!!?!??!“ my ass.
@R D I understand all that. I agree with you that as yt kids stands NOW, it's not a great place for kids. It's a real fixer upper. I hope you're at least aware of what they're watching, though far, be it from me to tell you how to raise your kids. I just think that the core idea would work if they put literally any effort into making it more kid friendly. Yt kids is an idea that is severely underutilized from every angle.
To those saying not much will change, its hard to say what will happen but i expect there will some major reforms for better or worse very soon. new ceo and elected politicians generally feel the need to prove their worth when taking power. Chances are that these new practices will focus on pleasing the shareholders and not have a major impact on youtubers content but there is a good chance that introducing new advertising models will be on the table, in which case maybe he’ll decide that advertisers dont care as much about controversy as susan thought that they did. I also expect that we’ll start seeing more AI influenced targeted ads and smart analytics to streamline the placement of ads. I’m sure everyone would be happy if an ai could place an ad during a natural transition point of the video, rather than interrupting the content mid sentence.
All we can do is hope that things improve. I hate that so many youtubers are being forced to focus move on live streaming because of mass demonetization.
I'll be honest, RUclips has gotten a lot better at recommending smaller channels to me. I've noticed at least one video on the main page feed with less than 1k views, either that or my recs are scuffed. My main gripe with the website is that they fucked up the search so that you only ever get like 3 relevant results and the rest are things that people also watched as well as videos that you've watched already.
OMG YES, I despise the search. Its practically useless. For me tho, recommendations cane be good, but most of mine have been things I've literally already watched, sometimes in the past few days staying there. Tried clearing watch history, so many things, but its been hard for me to find new content creators because of the shitty search and recommendations. :/
I had multiple privated videos from 7+ years ago just removed randomly for 0 reason and I wasn't even notified and now they're just gone, thanks youtube! I could care less to try and recover them but still why does this even happen
A bunch of my videos got either marked "made for kids" or taken down due to policy reasons. I even had my channel on the beach of termination prior to getting hacked THREE times few months ago and I've been on RUclips for over 10 years now.
On one hand, youtube has 100% gotten worse in many ways. On the other hand, sites like Twitter have declined in quality way faster over the past 5-10 years. This could be good, or it could be terrible, depending on who replaces her.
Twitter has gone down ill faster since Elon Musk bought it. And it hadn't even been a year of owning Twitter. Also, Twitter wasn't even that good to begin with.
@@oiseaufeu depends on what you view as "downhill" I guess. It was a well-oiled DNC propaganda machine prior to it being purchased, now it's just kind of a sh*tshow
@@michaelr.7805 Im of the position that the recent rejection of being a DNC propaganda machine was certainly a positive development; but even if you observe that to be positive, you cannot deny the decline in the years prior
I personally think there should be 3 different RUclips apps: The normal app with just RUclips videos, a "shorts" app, and a live-streaming app because they never should've merged all 3 in one app.
There two things that could happen: This would either make things better Or this would either makes things worst And the scary thing is that I don’t know which it would be….
theres 85% chance and thats way too high for things to be worse cause neither CEO can make things any better and youtube is far gone to become better lets hope some of us gonna be wrong
Knowing what happened to Twitter after Musk took over, all we can do is cross our fingers and wait to see what happens how RUclips is going to be with the new CEO.
Hopefully better but i'm going with the 'It's going to be worse option'.. As that seems to be the more obvious one to me.. If they can finally do something against bots already, that would be a massive W to me.
I really hope that the new CEO takes your suggestions Muta. It's really tough as a mature content creator to skirt around the often arbitrary rules to keep my videos in the algorithm. Creators aren't kidding when they say that demonetization/age restriction completely buries a video; I had a video drop from 700 views an hour to 7 when it got demonetized (incorrectly) and when I won the appeal it jumped back up to the hundreds. It would be really nice if RUclips could respect mature content, especially factual, non-fiction content, like as Muta said, larger corporations just get a pass on the rules that everyone else is held to (advertisers have no problem with dateline or vice), the former certainly "revels in gore" more than most YT true crime channels do, and Vice just posts all the stuff that is against the TOS (drug trafficking organizations, people doing drugs, street violence, wars, the "T" word that also goes hand in hand with the "E" word).
Here’s my take on why they probably won’t do that, from a business perspective: why allow someone to upload content that you as RUclips have to pay to host, when it has no capacity to bring in revenue because it scares off advertisers? From RUclipss perspective, they are investing in your video with nothing in return. Why not just make it so every video on the platform is tame enough to monetize?
I don't think anything good will come out of this, possibly might even be the beginning of an end for RUclips but I hope I am dead wrong. Though in this day and age I don't have too much hope but what can you do
ever since 2017, I have been vaguely been scarred by the removal of German historic videos that get taken down wrongfully for incorrect political reasons, memes and Fashwave especially, ever since 2017 I have missed so many musical artists and meme producers that get taken down and will never be forgotten
I'm interested in nuclear energy and weapons. More a terrifying interest that anything. Lots of videos I watched were wiped. If it's true historical footage gone. If it's for made PG audiences ok. I just hate all the deleting of history internet wide
@@sourgreendolly7685 I am not surprised at all. She was sooo tone deaf that she cant read the writing on the walls that people just didn’t like her incompetence. She lives in her own little fairy dreamland that she did a good job as the CEO of Yt.
I love that you are addressing this cause people should spread the word out, maybe then youtube can be a nicer place, I remember old youtube, where people could upload content without being copyright clam. You are a trooper talking about this.
I'm gonna be THAT guy and say that all things considered, Susan was a good CEO. Part of her job because of her visibility was being the scapegoat for everything wrong that happened in the site and I think that that side was handled really well by her. Never did she lose her temper or make a tantrum on social media and considering how much the mob was pointed at her, I find that commendable.
Honestly this, Considering the fact that the person who's taking over her position is a crypto bro and an NFT shill I have a feeling things are going to get even worse than they already are.
It does seem like people are misdirecting their anger and hate torwards her than the shareholders or advertizers that preassure her to make them money or force her to lose her job. Honestly kinda scares me to think 'Why did she leave?', and hopefully it wasn't because youtube was going to do something SO DUMB that even she jumped ship.
If you've ever watched her interviews she had plenty of bad takes and spearheaded alot of what is going on now such as demonitization and the want to remove edgy content. I've watched youtube since it's inception and the moment her regime took over it just got progressively worse and it's time for a change.
Under her(whether it’s her accomplishment or not) RUclips exploded in popularity and viewership. But also under her rule, content moderation has been running wild and they have made it more corporate friendly and removed the “you” from “RUclips” essentially
@@karthikbalamurugan7390 That is, if the new CEO fixes the demonitization issues if he's gonna introduce NFT's, otherwise we'll just have the shitty demonitization system AND NFT's, which is undoubtedly worse.
@@HydragonofDeath Fair, but honestly I doubt he wouldn't at the very least tweak the demonitization system as to prevent people from leaving the platforms, and say what you want about NFT and the people who buy/sell them, but if people are making money (in a non scammy way) then I am all for it (despite the low effort)
Just as I predicted. Jawed, Chad, and Steve were CEO of RUclips for nine years(circa 2005-2014), Susan was CEO for approximately nine years like the first three big bosses(2014-2023). I knew this was going to happen, so I wouldn't be surprised if people in the comments call me a "psychic".
I really do appreciate the smoothness of the platform. I have YT Premium and have had minimal technical issues and really seen the world open up to me in terms of learning new things and pondering different ideas. But the combination of restrictions on creators, hidden comments, and how the algo has been for me lately have me considering dropping YT for the first time really. It seems I either get fantastic recommendations OR things that feel either greedy or extremely biased in one direction or another. This never bothered me much, but it has become markedly more aggressive. I’ve turned off auto play because of it
I'd like to remind everyone that under Susan, we couldn't talk about the covid on youtube even when we were all locked in our house and our economy was crumbling around us because of how poorly managed by our government that whole thing was.
Good Riddance Sue, you won't be missed, We're still not free, Neal is worse, and he was Sue's close friend. She's Dead now. Technically Sue was a Tuber, Her Channel @susan is still there.
My only issue with this entire situation is that she wasn't the true executioner of all shit that went down. Many things that happened in the site she barely even knew. It is RUclips's board of executives that did all the shit that went down. My greatest fear is that the new CEO might become just another puppet to a group lobbied by shareholders.
As a member of the Vaccum cleaning community. There's definitely beef in here. The problem is that everyone seems to be trying to see who's product sucks more.
This would be a relief, until you realize this new CEO wants to push NFTs and blockchains onto this platform and not even fix anything that Susan fucked up

The new CEO: "Oh I wouldn't say freed, more like under new management."

What do you mean, she has literally been CEO for almost the entire time? Your comment makes no sense.
Netflix ceo
She was there back when Google was being run out of a small office
Whoever replaces Susan better undo the garbage changes she made in the last decade.
Bring back dislikes. Allow all cursing, swearing and offensive / sensitive content. Only demonetize hard slurs and illegal things like threats.
To protect children, just return to youtube kids / put a "mature content" warning like we see on art sites. No need to turn the entire site PG just because of dumb kids. Let creators be themselves and let them talk about controversial topics.
Great ideas
Why do you want offensive content back? It's never okay to offend someone. But I’m sure you don't care about that.

I literally always forget that RUclips kids exists and every time I get reminded I realize that RUclips COULD basically be like it used to be if they just moved a lot of their changes there and (as Muta touched on) actually get parents to make sure their kids are on RUclips kids instead of mainstream RUclips. But that's more of an issue regarding common sense maybe.
Yeah but who uses ytkids and also let’s be honest parents don’t parent anymore so there not going to bother using ytkids
They need to remove garbage videos, move nursery songs, family channels and other kid's videos there to make yt kids more kid-friendly for real.
My kids don’t use YTKids because I know how much gore and porn it shoves in children’s faces. I don’t trust it ONE BIT. „But what about the children!!?!??!“ my ass.
@@oosha2000 3am videos are somehow in there
@R D I understand all that. I agree with you that as yt kids stands NOW, it's not a great place for kids. It's a real fixer upper. I hope you're at least aware of what they're watching, though far, be it from me to tell you how to raise your kids. I just think that the core idea would work if they put literally any effort into making it more kid friendly. Yt kids is an idea that is severely underutilized from every angle.
Susan is no longer with RUclips, this is so sad guys, let's rewind her wonderful works on RUclips in the past few years:

@@SuperMandibleclaw oh god noooo
To those saying not much will change, its hard to say what will happen but i expect there will some major reforms for better or worse very soon. new ceo and elected politicians generally feel the need to prove their worth when taking power. Chances are that these new practices will focus on pleasing the shareholders and not have a major impact on youtubers content but there is a good chance that introducing new advertising models will be on the table, in which case maybe he’ll decide that advertisers dont care as much about controversy as susan thought that they did. I also expect that we’ll start seeing more AI influenced targeted ads and smart analytics to streamline the placement of ads. I’m sure everyone would be happy if an ai could place an ad during a natural transition point of the video, rather than interrupting the content mid sentence.
More likely, it'll be for worst(better for conglomerates), but if we pretend to be delusional, then yeah things will get better.
All we can do is hope that things improve. I hate that so many youtubers are being forced to focus move on live streaming because of mass demonetization.
I'll be honest, RUclips has gotten a lot better at recommending smaller channels to me. I've noticed at least one video on the main page feed with less than 1k views, either that or my recs are scuffed.
My main gripe with the website is that they fucked up the search so that you only ever get like 3 relevant results and the rest are things that people also watched as well as videos that you've watched already.
OMG YES, I despise the search. Its practically useless. For me tho, recommendations cane be good, but most of mine have been things I've literally already watched, sometimes in the past few days staying there. Tried clearing watch history, so many things, but its been hard for me to find new content creators because of the shitty search and recommendations. :/
You have better chance finding what you want on Google search video section and it says a lot imo
This is probably the best thing she’s done for yt

On one hand, youtube has 100% gotten worse in many ways.
On the other hand, sites like Twitter have declined in quality way faster over the past 5-10 years.
This could be good, or it could be terrible, depending on who replaces her.
Twitter has gone down ill faster since Elon Musk bought it. And it hadn't even been a year of owning Twitter. Also, Twitter wasn't even that good to begin with.

There two things that could happen:
This would either make things better
Or this would either makes things worst
And the scary thing is that I don’t know which it would be….
theres 85% chance and thats way too high for things to be worse cause neither CEO can make things any better and youtube is far gone to become better
lets hope some of us gonna be wrong
Knowing what happened to Twitter after Musk took over, all we can do is cross our fingers and wait to see what happens how RUclips is going to be with the new CEO.
Hopefully better but i'm going with the 'It's going to be worse option'.. As that seems to be the more obvious one to me.. If they can finally do something against bots already, that would be a massive W to me.

Hello Disappointed Tails
I learned this an hour ago and I WAS SO HAPPY TO LEARN THIS OMG
@instabruhuser.. April 1st is still 1.5 months away
I highly doubt anything will change with RUclips, Madoya.
I really hope that the new CEO takes your suggestions Muta. It's really tough as a mature content creator to skirt around the often arbitrary rules to keep my videos in the algorithm. Creators aren't kidding when they say that demonetization/age restriction completely buries a video; I had a video drop from 700 views an hour to 7 when it got demonetized (incorrectly) and when I won the appeal it jumped back up to the hundreds. It would be really nice if RUclips could respect mature content, especially factual, non-fiction content, like as Muta said, larger corporations just get a pass on the rules that everyone else is held to (advertisers have no problem with dateline or vice), the former certainly "revels in gore" more than most YT true crime channels do, and Vice just posts all the stuff that is against the TOS (drug trafficking organizations, people doing drugs, street violence, wars, the "T" word that also goes hand in hand with the "E" word).
Here’s my take on why they probably won’t do that, from a business perspective: why allow someone to upload content that you as RUclips have to pay to host, when it has no capacity to bring in revenue because it scares off advertisers? From RUclipss perspective, they are investing in your video with nothing in return. Why not just make it so every video on the platform is tame enough to monetize?
I don't think anything good will come out of this, possibly might even be the beginning of an end for RUclips but I hope I am dead wrong. Though in this day and age I don't have too much hope but what can you do
ever since 2017, I have been vaguely been scarred by the removal of German historic videos that get taken down wrongfully for incorrect political reasons, memes and Fashwave especially, ever since 2017 I have missed so many musical artists and meme producers that get taken down and will never be forgotten
Well I've been scarred by the amount of german history and military video creators being actual Nazis.
“Never forget history”
Proceed to delete all WW2 content and remove USSR communism from history book in high school.
...fashwave? if that's what I think it is bro
I'm guessing you're referring to Timeghost History
I'm interested in nuclear energy and weapons. More a terrifying interest that anything. Lots of videos I watched were wiped. If it's true historical footage gone. If it's for made PG audiences ok. I just hate all the deleting of history internet wide
RUclipsrs: Free at last! Free at last!
RUclips Management: Whoa, not so fast, chief.

@@sourgreendolly7685 I am not surprised at all. She was sooo tone deaf that she cant read the writing on the walls that people just didn’t like her incompetence. She lives in her own little fairy dreamland that she did a good job as the CEO of Yt.
I was NOT expecting this! Maybe things will finally start looking up for us... hopefully.
I love that you are addressing this cause people should spread the word out, maybe then youtube can be a nicer place, I remember old youtube, where people could upload content without being copyright clam. You are a trooper talking about this.
I'm gonna be THAT guy and say that all things considered, Susan was a good CEO. Part of her job because of her visibility was being the scapegoat for everything wrong that happened in the site and I think that that side was handled really well by her. Never did she lose her temper or make a tantrum on social media and considering how much the mob was pointed at her, I find that commendable.
Hard pass on that take
Honestly this, Considering the fact that the person who's taking over her position is a crypto bro and an NFT shill I have a feeling things are going to get even worse than they already are.
It does seem like people are misdirecting their anger and hate torwards her than the shareholders or advertizers that preassure her to make them money or force her to lose her job.
Honestly kinda scares me to think 'Why did she leave?', and hopefully it wasn't because youtube was going to do something SO DUMB that even she jumped ship.
THIS.
Never forget the context, people. It always annoys me when others equate Susan = RUclips, as if she were the ONLY one who calls the shots.
If you've ever watched her interviews she had plenty of bad takes and spearheaded alot of what is going on now such as demonitization and the want to remove edgy content. I've watched youtube since it's inception and the moment her regime took over it just got progressively worse and it's time for a change.
Absolutelt agree with that first statement. RUclips is still decent even with all the bs. I just hope this means things will get even better.
This video hits harder now that she’s *really* quit RUclips

@@HydragonofDeath Really? Well that ruins my mood.
This might be the best moment of RUclips history but the future is uncertain
If we started calling Karens "Susans" this would've happened 3 years ago!
Just as I predicted. Jawed, Chad, and Steve were CEO of RUclips for nine years(circa 2005-2014), Susan was CEO for approximately nine years like the first three big bosses(2014-2023). I knew this was going to happen, so I wouldn't be surprised if people in the comments call me a "psychic".
I really do appreciate the smoothness of the platform. I have YT Premium and have had minimal technical issues and really seen the world open up to me in terms of learning new things and pondering different ideas.
But the combination of restrictions on creators, hidden comments, and how the algo has been for me lately have me considering dropping YT for the first time really. It seems I either get fantastic recommendations OR things that feel either greedy or extremely biased in one direction or another. This never bothered me much, but it has become markedly more aggressive. I’ve turned off auto play because of it
Girl boss energy till her last breath
Stepping down is probably the best thing she’s ever done for creators. Watch the next ceo be even worse though.
He's the one that removed the dislike button
I'm praying that the new CEO would be someone who will fix the platform instead of making it worse
The likelihood of that is probably at about 2%. Sorry to crush your hopes and dreams, but that's the reality.

I'd like to remind everyone that under Susan, we couldn't talk about the covid on youtube even when we were all locked in our house and our economy was crumbling around us because of how poorly managed by our government that whole thing was.
Good Riddance Sue, you won't be missed, We're still not free, Neal is worse, and he was Sue's close friend. She's Dead now. Technically Sue was a Tuber, Her Channel @susan is still there.
And she just passed away...
R.I.P.
Susan Wojcicki quitting RUclips is the best thing she’s done in her entire career.
And probably in her entire life...
My only issue with this entire situation is that she wasn't the true executioner of all shit that went down. Many things that happened in the site she barely even knew. It is RUclips's board of executives that did all the shit that went down. My greatest fear is that the new CEO might become just another puppet to a group lobbied by shareholders.
As a member of the Vaccum cleaning community. There's definitely beef in here. The problem is that everyone seems to be trying to see who's product sucks more.
This would be a relief, until you realize this new CEO wants to push NFTs and blockchains onto this platform and not even fix anything that Susan fucked up
