In case you hadn’t heard, more than a few YouTube users are stating that “it isn’t like it used to be” (more or less) and that the site is nothing but a big ball of boring. In addition to that, users of that site are abso-frickin’-lutely sick of the negativity that goes thru that place like a never-ending tidal wave; this means video-makers either “play it safe” with video content or just don’t post anymore.
I pondered this and came out with a well-thought-out pie chart showing what the content of YouTube is like.
As you can see, YouTube is overwhelmed with crap.
But maybe it’s the community that makes YouTube great? I don’t think so.
Here’s a screen shot I took of a random video comment section on YouTube. I blurred out the names (because I’m not about to make them “famous”, thank you very much.)
Bear in mind that other than the blur-outs, this is UNEDITED.
Want more proof? Check out Metafilter vs. YouTube and see for yourself.
YouTube is teeming with morons and people are abandoning it left and right (for good reason.)
It’s official: YouTube sucks.
But you probably already knew that.
I also agree with all the above posts. Google doesn’t give a shit about anything, not even the users. The most major thing that they care about is… money. They will gladly let an employee die, just to get the insurance money. They will also murder some of their employees also to get insurance. YouTube needs fixing, but I guess it’s impossible. With the mass amount of stupid retards or idiots, espicially on cubing vids, YouTube is unfixable. There is no way that YouTube can be the same unless they shutdown youtube forever. But if they shutdown youtube, there will be another site that will get polluted, so I guess we must make the right decision: Screw YouTube.
Just “Beat It - Michael Jackson” and get the heck out of there. It is a piece of shit now, and there is no way. I mean why not even have a language filter? And look at all the shit, and useless AMV. Make a YouTube AMV .com and then we sure will be happy, and guess what? copyright crybabies are taking them all down, which is making us more happy, but their not just after AMVs, they are after awesome videos. If you have seen TheRealWorldWeeklyNews, he said that he just got falsely copyright claimed by Viacom. This is why everyone at YouTube is who is sincere and honest is actually hating Viacom. The fair use claim doesn’t do bullshit anymore, so I guess youtube is bye bye. So, Beat it. You cannot be a macho man in this one.
LOL at the negative comment ratings on this video. http://www.youtube.com/comment_servlet?all_comments&v=XWsXpOYnpuU&fromurl=/watch%3Fv%3DXWsXpOYnpuU
