YouTube Reviews Summary

YouTube's reputation is increasingly marred by customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to excessive advertisements and perceived censorship. Users express frustration over the platform's reliance on ads, which disrupt viewing experiences and lead many to consider alternatives. Complaints about account suspensions and a lack of transparency regarding community guidelines further exacerbate concerns about customer service. While some users appreciate the vast array of content available, the overall sentiment indicates a growing discontent with YouTube's management practices, prompting calls for more user-friendly policies and a potential shift to competing platforms.

Its so difficult to start as a beginner as if you have a technical trouble the service is an absolute 0. No chances, they dont give a damn about you. They are blocking now new channels out of a bug that affect channels that are + 18 years because that bug is feeling like you put under 18 when you dont. The service on Twitter is overpassed by quantity and they barely get into the issue. And they dont care - you are a nobody for them.

The ex ceo of YouTube was secretly fired because she misappropriated revenue to funnel her secret painkiller and gambling addiction. Stay tuned to YouTube as we will be posting a complete reveal of how she lied to an entire community, and committed several felonies in the process.

Evil
February 24, 2023

YouTube just removed our online church, Calvery Chapel Chino Hills with Jack Hibbs from their platform for absolutely no legitimate reason. They refuse to review the case. YouTube is violating the First Amendment and they do not even care. They think they are unaccountable. They are evil and demonic. It's laughable that they think they can stop God. They won't!

Deleted channels
February 9, 2023

They delete channels that don't deserve it like berleezy and they show obvious favoritism. YouTube has very strict guidelines but sometimes they're overly strict even for kids older enough to know better and pick appropriate videos

Horrible and Broken
February 5, 2023

The app has too many bugs.

There are too many ads. Do not use this app, unless you want to be excited for money by the amount of ads there. The app is also constantly crashing / freezing!

When I go from landscape to portrait mode on videos, it flips back and forth like 3 times before it stays at portrait mode. Same goes for landscape.

Way too many ads! Do not get this app.

My feed started blasting me with "Are you gay?" ads involving cartoon characters. Quit targeting my kids and pushing your sexual orientations onto other people.

The amount of times I've seen creators absolutely decimated by new content rules that aren't communicated is honestly ridiculous. You have a kids section! Wtf are you policing consenting adults for? You have a responsibility to be clear, honest and FAIR to the people who use your platform and you've proven time and time again to be a money hungry, ad crazy lunatic. Do better.

This Company states 100% Guarantee & 2 Year Warranty. Their WIFI830 Trail Camera DOESN'T WORK & VISIONNER WILL NOT REFUND YOUR PURCHASE even though they state on their web site 100% guarantee. THEY CLAIM 24/7 SUPPORT BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION & THEY CHARGE A FEE. NO ONE ANSWER THE PHONE DUE TO "THEY ARE NOT AVAILABLE DURING PEAK HOURS". THE SUPPORT WEBSITE "*******@visionner.com " comes back as a mailer failure. This company is a SCAM.

Youtube puts in 30 min skipable ads while playing kids videos because they know that kids cannot skip the ads.

Basically read the title. YouTube has been around for a very long time, and each new decision Google makes is a wrong one and hurts YouTube as a whole, such as the removal of the dislike button and so-on. YouTube is frustrating not because of what it is, but because of the knowledge of what this website/app could have the potential to be, yet it is held back by incompetence. That is why this is a 1 star rating.
