    I don't know who messed with the algorithm over at #youtube but for the past 3 weeks my search results have been absolute dogshit. Fix it @youtube ...because it's barely useable anymore.

    @JeremyECrawford @ToddKenreck @YouTube invocation spells are also on the Arcane list, they have the option of simply taking them as a known spell and casting them regularly. Jump is pretty awful, and Alter Self at level 15? Eh! However Truesight is nice.

    Very sad. You spend days making a video and posting it on YouTube, and after 5 to 10 days, that video still has 10 views. YouTube needs to fix its algorithm. None of their tutos really help creators. @YouTube @YouTubeCreators

    @jschlatt @YouTube It is common for the heimlich to cause broken bones and choking is dangerous. Having those videos would be promoting harmful activities and they don't stand for that.

    @TexasLindsay_ @YouTube I've started assuming that if @youtube don’t take it down it’s probably NOT true or of any value to us for what is important to getting the truth about our country’s problems.
