What is with these new ads. That show up for premium subscribers.

Look at the view count and time the video was posted, it's kinda ridiculous. When I clicked the vdo tho, it showed normal numbers.

Is it against the rules or no?

They even added "AI" to their channel filter so that people in the comments can't point out that the videos are all AI.

I'm genuinely wondering how they did this. Was it just some kind of hacking?

Grrrrr.

It doesn’t matter what I watch I get gambling ads

It doesn’t matter if I block the ads I keep seeing and click the “see less gambling and casino ads”

PRETTY MUCH EVERY SINGLE AD BREAK, WHICH IS EVERY SINGLE THREE MINUTES I HAVE SEVEN GAMBLING ADS ON MY SCREEN

I DON’T EVEN GAMBLE IN THE FIRST PLACE

CALLING ALL, CALLING ALL, CALLING ALL, BILLIONAIRES!

FIDDLE WITH THE BADLANDS THAT’S A WORLD OF FUN PLAY HUFF AND PUFF EXCLUSIVES HIT IT IS NUMBER ONE

THE DAMN LYRICS ARE STUCK IN MY HEAD
THATS HOW YOU KNOW ITS TOO MUCH

I just want to know what your thoughts on this are.

Guys I've created a character Lampoo to showcase my childhood through videos.

Can anyone relate to my videos??

Just asking since based on what I seen and heard it looks like they seem to really like showing fetishes and sex stuff to underage kids such as the pregnancy (as a kink) and bondage, and I heard somewhere that 1 of the definitions of a pedophile was to knowingly show sexual content and fetishes to underage children regardless of whatever it’s wrong or not.

Has that always been a thing?

Half of these mobile ads are pissing me off. They use AI generated images with rage-bait gameplay and it's genuinely annoying. Look. Even I can solve it.

Can anyone explain why these ads are basically rage-bait gameplay?

I find it genuinely peculiar; I had only ever contemplated Japan as a casual destination, a place to simply visit as a tourist and partake in its lifestyle, food, architecture, and temples.

Hey everyone! I'm curious about how other creators approach the planning stage before making a video.

When you have a new video idea, how do you evaluate whether it's worth spending hours or even days producing it?

I'm particularly interested in things like:

How you research topics and validate demand before creating a video.

Whether you look at competitors' views, search trends, CTR, or other metrics.

Which tools you regularly use for research, ideation, and performance analysis.

What signals tell you an idea has potential, especially for a smaller channel.

I'd love to hear about your actual process and what has or hasn't worked for you.

Thanks

Hey everyone! I'm a solo dev from Portugal and I just launched SmartSkip, a free Chrome extension that skips the long instrumental outros on YouTube automatically.

How it works: I built a Python pipeline using Meta's Demucs to separate the vocals, then analyze the pitch (pyin) and RMS to find the exact second the human voice ends. The extension fetches this timestamp from a Supabase DB and clicks "Next" for you.

It has community feedback (👍/👎), manual timestamp correction, and a request system if a song isn't in the database yet.

I'd love to get some feedback from you guys. Here's the link: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/smartskip-for-youtube/nigknfclcgfbpneddcpapakhjeehjlbe

Cheers!

I was watching Jacob Collier improvising with the orchestra video and I kept feeling he was sooo familiar I couldn’t focus I searched and i figured who he reminded me of and it was Jeff Acuri I feel like they have the same dog energy on stage and I had to tell someone and let it out 🤣

I’ve been having a reoccurring issue when ads come up that when it gets to the second ad the bar doesn’t progress and the skip button does not pop up at all does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?? my YouTube up is up to date and does not need an update

Doesn't matter how often I click the X to remove it - the games come back every time I load a new video... and bug out

Just wanted to do a little vigilantism on my own terms because I've been seeing these videos of grown adults bouncing on beach balls with their butts. These are clearly fetish channels, and what makes them worse and definetly problematic channels is that these feitsh videos contain properties for kids like PAW Patrol.

Given the Elsagate and horrible fetish videos I've seen and what has been poisoning YouTube, I'm glad I'm doing my share of exposing this type of content to keep the platform safe.

The first video had the person pop the PAW Patrol beach ball with not just their butt but also with a knife.

The second one is just some guy popping the PAW Patrol ball with his bottom.

The third one is also unique of these three because the guy is bouncing on the beach ball with fart sound effects, so this guy also has a fart fetish. Oh, and he also has clips of kids cartoons and is obsessed with Yakko Warner from Animaniacs and happens to be a furry. It's not creepy at all... Even the furry community shouldn't be associated with weirdos like this guy.

These channels are clearly pedophilic given what's here on this post. It's surprising that these people are bold enough to post this nasty garbage to YouTube. These videos are not even age restricted, like the ones I screenshotted.

These disgusting channels and videos make my blood boil, and I'm relieved I'm finally venting and cracking down on this weirdo crap because, let's be real, THIS is NOT okay at all.
