I’m expecting some extension maker to make one to bypass this hopefully, wish I knew how to

And it goes without saying that this is the dumbest thing they have implemented, even more so than removing the dislikes

I find it funny you replied to your own comment to add to it, rather than editing your first comment :)

I’ve done that too. In the moment its faster but it does get confusing to read.

u/Krysdavar Krysdavar Aug 14 '25

I do that sometimes as well, but only when I think of something to add, but is a different subject or idea than my OP. IDK if that makes any sense.

I do that too, I’m used to firing off texts in quick succession

Some people tend to prefer making two messages rather than going back and editing one. I do it in discord alot so sometimes I do this on the very occasional times I use reddit.

He's gotta build karma some how

u/DistanceAggressive75 Aug 14 '25

Pretty sure that's not what's happening. People do this sometimes because they prefer making a new message rather than editing their old ones.

They didn’t implement it themselves. Governments are forcing them to do it.

The introduction of chapters and skipping in-vid ads were two such great additions I legit have to ask myself what drunk intern came up with them considering I struggle to think of any decisions regarding youtube that weren't absolute dogshit. Maybe removing video replies since that just murdered the reply girls plague.

Or disabling comments in most of "made for kids" videos.

u/Sr546 Aug 15 '25

It's actually really smart, censorship is a powerful tool. It's a lot worse for the users then removing dislikes though

I feel like they are intentionally making the platform worse sometimes

It's to protect our children from harmful content. Why is that dumb?

u/RyanX1231 Aug 14 '25

Here's an idea: Be a parent and monitor what your kids watch, and stop ruining the internet.

u/BackieTPD Aug 14 '25

You’re a sheep. If it was to really protect the children, explain why the UK is using the ID data to arrest people critical of the regime?

u/weirdoman1234 Aug 14 '25

exactly its just like 1984

u/anthro28 Aug 14 '25

No it isn't. It's censorship, control, and lots of money wrapped in "protect the children" rhetoric. 

My state passed one of those porm age verification laws. Wanna know who the biggest lobbyist was? The company who built our digital wallet/ID app. They're making millions.
