    @Ranboosaysstuff @ranaltboo @YouTube please, no one wants to be on twitch anymore but we still want something more dedicated to streams than youtube streaming. fixing small problems, and making a corner of youtube that feels more like a home for streams would instantly make yt the best streaming platform!!

    @deadmeatjames @TeamYouTube @YouTube Do you think making it black and white will help? I know it’s insane that you have to do **** like this, but if it’s not the color of blood, they may give it a pass… or not. It’s ******* YouTube, after all.

    @deadmeatjames @TeamYouTube @YouTube Just recreate the scene with ms paint drawings. Use green for blood, that always seems to work for cartoons.

  • NoveTrent Trent A'Nove (@NoveTrent) reported

    @UAPFirstContact @YouTube One of the other problems we have with the Pentagon and the US Intelligence Services in general, is the fact that they don't have any "ex employees".

  • Kebec_Gamer J. (@Kebec_Gamer) reported

    @TacTixHD @YouTube Okay so the problem is the YouTube app I went on safari & the video is running & there’s no problem Saw on reddit that after 10-20min it’ll get fixed!

  • TDragon1989 TDragon Studios (@TDragon1989) reported

    If more #TwitchStreamers migrate over to @YouTube Google is going to have to lower its requirements for monetization. YouTube has two major issues which is too high monetization requirements and scam bots. The scam bots are forgivable to some degree cause bots are parasites.

  • Kebec_Gamer J. (@Kebec_Gamer) reported

    @TacTixHD @YouTube I did multiple time! I never saw/had that problem before Still can’t watch🥲
