Sigh. RUclips’s competition with TikTok by becoming it will be its downfall. Instead of listening to their audience on how to improve the platform and make it its own, they prefer dumbing themselves down to a clone of tt with longer video options
The only people RUclips listens to are the ad companies, content creators and RUclips's actual paying custormers (Premium users) are pushed to the back.
Nah. Google was already busy trying to set the YT house on fire. The only thing that happened when TT came on the scene was YT saw their strategy and decided to go buy some gasoline.
I love how the reason for them removing the dislike counter is, for one, to protect small creators (which doesn't matter as the video creators can still see the dislikes), and for two, because they can't handle the oh so bad level of pain when they upload something bad and cringe-y. How the mighty have fallen.

The Chinese RUclips, „Bilibili“ had these automatic hyperlinks in comments literally since forever and it is probably the most annoying thing in existence.
There is a thing that have been bothering me recently Most features they added in the last 3 years is just an weird attempt to copy tiktok, sometimes i think they forget that they are different apps and just copying will just not work Examples •Shorts (literally tiktok) •hyperlinks (in tiktok this was used to help viewers when the same thing was asked by many people) •shorts with 3 min lenth (tiktok added this feature years ago) •remixes (direct copy of an really old tiktok feature called duets) •áudio used in the vídeo (tiktok already had this since 2018 if im correct) •double tapping to like a video or comment
The shorts 100% make sense, however RUclips HATES them and even Meta hates them. They make ridiculously less money off of the shorts. Meta even makes it so IG reels after a month to 3 months, they get rid of the high definition version of the IG reels. RUclips doesn't want there to be short-form content but it makes sense why they added it in so people don't leave for Tiktok
Had to stop watching TOM & JERRY in my CYBERTRUCK to watch this video. I watched it on my IPHONE that has a MINECRAFT wallpaper. I was going to MCDONALDS but stoped to watch this. im also going to watch DESPICABLE ME 4 later. the movie theater is across the street from WALMART.
Comments having hyperlinks all of a sudden is hilarious since in many corporate IT security trainings, it's advised to NEVER click on random links since they may contain viruses. At some point I thought my phone got a virus because of those hyperlinks appearing all of a sudden 😅
This video originally covered the actual malware that did this but TONS of people left within that minute despite that part taking me an hour to edit/record/write for so it was edited out post-upload. That specific one was around a decade ago and all the articles that talked about it are from ages ago meaning that most antiviruses are likely filtering that out even if the person technically "consents" when it might come bundled with the free software they download and didn't uncheck it. It is infuriating that Discord and a ton of other platforms/apps don't give the option to have at least a mandatory confirmation/warning when opening a link.
Why would a virus do that though? Viruses are just programs that replicate themselves and replace other programs. That would probably be some kind of trojan.
The automatic video preview of some banner ads is also being counted as a view (I've seen them in my history), which means that YT is ripping off advertisers by charging them for views that don't exist.

You can pretty much say that RUclips after 2014-2015 has been just falling off. There was like, 4 or 5 good features along the way, but most of it was just RUclips scraping its own website.
IMO, 2014 was peak RUclips layout. Ever since then, it's been going downhill. Material design on mobile, then Polymer, and then the complete enshittification and overuse of rounded corners to make it look insanely ugly. From recent experience, the 2021 app looks WAY better than the current app, and back in 2018 I strongly preferred pre-Polymer versions (they were just better). The only good design change that I can think of that happened during this downward spiral was the introduction of dark mode.
I use V3 + StarTube (and an adblocker) on PC and I use the 2014 layout with dark mode, it's so good. On mobile, the design and layout has gotten so bad that I'm using Tubular (NewPipe with SponsorBlock integration) half the time. Even before, I was (and often still am) using ReVanced Extended spoofed to 17.33.2 with tablet layouts enabled to restore the oldest possible layout and make the app somewhat bearable.
not to mention, shorts on PC is so bugged that every month is a new kind of UI error currently, when i put the tab on my tall monitor, the background covers interactive elements oh and, i resize my chrome to 80% and a lot of the time, the small UIs like the Like Count becomes unaligned probably a size... issue...
Things RUclips has done that no one really needed: The dislike button being removed The magenta RUclips The hyperlinks The ai topics The new shorts layout The possibility of the release date and view count being removed The New MiniPlayer Removing video notes Removing private messages The new thing where you can scroll back to previous videos on normal videos There's an option to premote your video (Idk how tho) Did I miss anything?
RUclips when it comes to improving the user's experience and solving the huge problem of the bots with +18 profile pictures: I sleep RUclips when it's about increasing ads, demonetization, or anything that to do with ruining the experience: *R E A L S H I T*
I hope that this feature won’t be made public and will be discarded. This will so much harm video retention by distracting viewers. If viewers click the comment hyper-link, they will be led to a search results page with more videos, which could distract them from the current video they are watching. Oh also i can already see this feature being exploited... Don't know what's wrong with RUclips these days *_(sigh)_*
All shitty updates currently: - RUclips is magenta - RUclips is removing the view count and release date - RUclips wants links in comments - RUclips is removing like counts
This made me realise that since I got my new phone (2-3days ago, an android from 2023) I don't remember having seen any hyperlink so far. As for like, i think it is simply a bug from the design change They probably mistakenly ruined the thumb up icon and when trying to fix it, potentially ruined the count
We're just gonna have to get around this by making intentional tγpos and alternative letters like I did there. My suggestion would be to use ιPA characters and Grεek or Cγrillic on hyperlinκed words as I did here.
@@thealmightyloaf7203 Hard to leave a site when it's owned by one of the biggest companies in the world. Along with the fact that new sites will eventually cave in to adds like google did because they need money if they even manage to get popular. Your best shot is giving up videos if it gets worse/: I'll edit this if it gets hyperlinked.
To solve the preview putting the videos in your watch History thing, a method I've been using is simply click a video you are interested in and have it paused, whether you're actually going to watch it or not it'll completely stop the preview from ever playing.
If you look at videos that has japanese comments, sometimes some comments will all be hyperlinks, having the magnifying glass icon next to every word you wont even be able to read it properly anymore
The only 100% certain way you can tell RUclips has changed something is the disappearance of playlists. What I mean is playlists in your watch history, the ability to ad videos to playlists, manage playlists, search playlists etc. It doesn’t telegraph *what* they’re doing but like dejavu in ‘The Matrix’ it means “they” have xhanged something.
(testing hyperlinks) I like playing Rain World It is my hyperfixation Artificer is my favorite slugcat to play as Weird. Last time I did this the hyperlinks worked on both rain world and artificer
I think it’s stupid! And sometimes stuff gets hyperlinked ( like darkstalker ) and no longer is hyperlinked for no reason and like I’m one with that it’s just annoying seeing a blue text
I was just doing something and I accidentally pressed “Gacha World” in one of those links in the comments and I use mobile and now that search result is STUCK on my search suggestions, and I don’t want my brother to see it…
See, what you should do, then, is to do a whole bunch of embarrassing, uncomfortable, gross, or disturbing searches, so they're also logged, and overshadow that one in severity. Then, when the suggestions pop up, he won't care about that first one.
About that random watch thing 2:19. My channel has started subscribing to random channels. At first I thought it was me but I soon realized that most of this channels I only watched one video of
These search hyperlinks (text links with a search icon) exist on TikTok On TikTok, when people make a video that mentions a topic that not everyone knows or understands Comments mentioning that topic have the topic text as a link, for people to search for and understand For example, "What is that red bird doing there?" The "Red bird" part would be a hyperlink to videos about that red bird, for people to understand what it is I think RUclips is copying that feature of TikTok that identifies the topics on the video, to use TikTok as a search engine

No way…
There is a thing that have been bothering me recently
Most features they added in the last 3 years is just an weird attempt to copy tiktok, sometimes i think they forget that they are different apps and just copying will just not work
Examples
•Shorts (literally tiktok)
•hyperlinks (in tiktok this was used to help viewers when the same thing was asked by many people)
•shorts with 3 min lenth (tiktok added this feature years ago)
•remixes (direct copy of an really old tiktok feature called duets)
•áudio used in the vídeo (tiktok already had this since 2018 if im correct)
•double tapping to like a video or comment

@maybeanhat thx
@@sabuguinhoC np
The shorts 100% make sense, however RUclips HATES them and even Meta hates them. They make ridiculously less money off of the shorts. Meta even makes it so IG reels after a month to 3 months, they get rid of the high definition version of the IG reels. RUclips doesn't want there to be short-form content but it makes sense why they added it in so people don't leave for Tiktok

Comments having hyperlinks all of a sudden is hilarious since in many corporate IT security trainings, it's advised to NEVER click on random links since they may contain viruses. At some point I thought my phone got a virus because of those hyperlinks appearing all of a sudden 😅
This video originally covered the actual malware that did this but TONS of people left within that minute despite that part taking me an hour to edit/record/write for so it was edited out post-upload. That specific one was around a decade ago and all the articles that talked about it are from ages ago meaning that most antiviruses are likely filtering that out even if the person technically "consents" when it might come bundled with the free software they download and didn't uncheck it. It is infuriating that Discord and a ton of other platforms/apps don't give the option to have at least a mandatory confirmation/warning when opening a link.
i seriously had a similar virus recently and thought i had it again
Why would a virus do that though? Viruses are just programs that replicate themselves and replace other programs. That would probably be some kind of trojan.
@@cubedimensionsDiscord does do that though? It's one of my favorite things about it

The automatic video preview of some banner ads is also being counted as a view (I've seen them in my history), which means that YT is ripping off advertisers by charging them for views that don't exist.

You can pretty much say that RUclips after 2014-2015 has been just falling off. There was like, 4 or 5 good features along the way, but most of it was just RUclips scraping its own website.
IMO, 2014 was peak RUclips layout. Ever since then, it's been going downhill. Material design on mobile, then Polymer, and then the complete enshittification and overuse of rounded corners to make it look insanely ugly. From recent experience, the 2021 app looks WAY better than the current app, and back in 2018 I strongly preferred pre-Polymer versions (they were just better). The only good design change that I can think of that happened during this downward spiral was the introduction of dark mode.
I use V3 + StarTube (and an adblocker) on PC and I use the 2014 layout with dark mode, it's so good. On mobile, the design and layout has gotten so bad that I'm using Tubular (NewPipe with SponsorBlock integration) half the time. Even before, I was (and often still am) using ReVanced Extended spoofed to 17.33.2 with tablet layouts enabled to restore the oldest possible layout and make the app somewhat bearable.
@@polandman07 Thats just nostalgia bias the round corners and new style looks alot better
So you've been willfully gobbling trash since 2014-2015? Wild.
cybertruck has a very… strange shape to say the least, also no crumple zone so bad bad bad. (Hoping for ULTRAKILL and Titanfall 2 to be hyperlinked)

The like button removal would be so stupid, it's useful to know if a video is good or not.
the dislike button removal was stupid, it was useful to know if a video was a scam or not
not to mention, shorts on PC is so bugged that every month is a new kind of UI error
currently, when i put the tab on my tall monitor, the background covers interactive elements
oh and, i resize my chrome to 80% and a lot of the time, the small UIs like the Like Count becomes unaligned
probably a size... issue...
Things RUclips has done that no one really needed:
The dislike button being removed
The magenta RUclips
The hyperlinks
The ai topics
The new shorts layout
The possibility of the release date and view count being removed
The New MiniPlayer
Removing video notes
Removing private messages
The new thing where you can scroll back to previous videos on normal videos
There's an option to premote your video (Idk how tho)
Did I miss anything?
regular likes being hidden but probably gonna be fixed soon

I hope that this feature won’t be made public and will be discarded. This will so much harm video retention by distracting viewers. If viewers click the comment hyper-link, they will be led to a search results page with more videos, which could distract them from the current video they are watching. Oh also i can already see this feature being exploited...

"RUclips"? More like "You need to lock in"
Also the design/layout is constantly getting worse. I used the 2021 app earlier this year before it got killed and it's SO MUCH BETTER.
- RUclips mini-player (mobile app) is...
Only one I like was the magenta. It looks way nicer and cleaner with that gradient.

They probably mistakenly ruined the thumb up icon and when trying to fix it, potentially ruined the count

To solve the preview putting the videos in your watch History thing, a method I've been using is simply click a video you are interested in and have it paused, whether you're actually going to watch it or not it'll completely stop the preview from ever playing.

The only 100% certain way you can tell RUclips has changed something is the disappearance of playlists. What I mean is playlists in your watch history, the ability to ad videos to playlists, manage playlists, search playlists etc.
It doesn’t telegraph *what* they’re doing but like dejavu in ‘The Matrix’ it means “they” have xhanged something.

See, what you should do, then, is to do a whole bunch of embarrassing, uncomfortable, gross, or disturbing searches, so they're also logged, and overshadow that one in severity. Then, when the suggestions pop up, he won't care about that first one.

It's literally the tiktok blue comment 😭🙏🙏
These search hyperlinks (text links with a search icon) exist on TikTok
On TikTok, when people make a video that mentions a topic that not everyone knows or understands
Comments mentioning that topic have the topic text as a link, for people to search for and understand
For example, "What is that red bird doing there?"
The "Red bird" part would be a hyperlink to videos about that red bird, for people to understand what it is
I think RUclips is copying that feature of TikTok that identifies the topics on the video, to use TikTok as a search engine
