  • ChaiBiscuitShop Chai Biscuit Shop (@ChaiBiscuitShop) reported

    @YouTube I have compromised Apple's iOS, you need to contact me, I can help you build a better operating system than iOS.

  • LB_Paranormal Lovely Bones Paranormal OFFICIAL (@LB_Paranormal) reported

    @elonmusk @MrBeast As a creator I will never work for Twitter or post my video content here. I prefer @youtube and you would be wise to not mess with their platform. This is social media not a video platform. We prefer these separate. It’s like Facebook and Instagram trying to compete with tik tok

  • andy__breth Andy 💤 (@andy__breth) reported

  • TransOcolot Shaidai💥 (@TransOcolot) reported

    @Bokn_1 @ParashockX @YouTube I have ******* terrible memory I always know its somewhere in the 360s, but that last digit I can baisically never get right

  • Mezla78 Mezla (@Mezla78) reported

    @tarotwithana @YouTube Glad you said this. I noticed more ads today. They cut to them at the worst times too

  • GHOSTKNIGHT2751 G (@GHOSTKNIGHT2751) reported

    @YouTube hi I need help I posted two shorts and it says copyright claim but doesn’t affect your channel but I would like to change the music or I can’t.

  • DLKtheCreativ8r DLK (@DLKtheCreativ8r) reported

    Hey @CallofDuty can we get some female creator tournaments? There's more than enough to run some Warzone 2.0 quads, duos, or singles. Maybe run all 3 at separate times. @Twitch @YouTube whoever else is in the gaming space, let's make this happen. I'll help.

  • OffPiste11 _Off_Piste_ (@OffPiste11) reported

    @terri0928 @YouTube question that those, who wrote the open letter, NEED to respond to which is (paraphrasing): They have no problem vilifying men, who are abusive, taunting them, mocking them, exposing them, why is it such a problem when it's a woman who is abusive and does it?

  • NurseOfFury Angry Bird (@NurseOfFury) reported

    @YouTube I cannot play any content via your app - despite settings all being ok. Works fine on iPad but not iPhone. Content plays via browser. And I cannot submit a query online either. Can you help?

  • YoungBlight Luz Noceda (@YoungBlight) reported

    @YouTube @Schultzzie I feel like the dislike count would help me determine if a video is misleading or not

  • Marvinwynn The Edge theedgecomic.com ComicsBurgh (@Marvinwynn) reported

    @JnthnHdrck @dzaharakis1 @YouTube No problem.

  • RobuxTRex RobuxTRex (@RobuxTRex) reported

    @YouTube need help recovering old videos deleted from my channel

  • iHasCupquake Cupquake (@iHasCupquake) reported

    It’s a real shame how @YouTube doesn’t send out notifications to your subscribers and puts you in a bracket… I have almost 7 mil subs and am averaging 15k views. I know it’s not that people don’t want to watch, or that the quality, creativity and entertainment isn’t there…

  • thrive42 thriveordecline.eth ☠️ (@thrive42) reported

    @iHasCupquake @YouTube It’s frustrating seeing the algorithm promote a lot of garbage and never enough quality content :/

  • Real_SahilSunny Sahil Sunny (@Real_SahilSunny) reported

    @YouTube @Schultzzie @YouTube We two could be friends as well. If you lift the suspension of my wife's channel which you made in an error. Imagine submitting appeal getting denied waiting 2 weeks, then getting denied waiting 2 weeks & so on. Part (1/2)

  • shonmg3 shonmg (@shonmg3) reported

    @ParashockX @YouTube aren't they doing this to help prevent scam bots?

  • SirKorolacid korolacid (@SirKorolacid) reported

    @YouTube Damn for sure not you y’all won’t do anything about your bots like how one called a YouTuber the n word do something about them please because it’s terrible can’t go in a comment section without seeing two bots

  • Real_SahilSunny Sahil Sunny (@Real_SahilSunny) reported

    @YouTube @Schultzzie @YouTube All it takes for you is some automation & canned response. But for creators, all of their hard work is gone in an instant and they need to beg YouTube review their channel to see how it was an error. (Part 2/2)
