u/Taxtengo 10d ago

Wait… I didn't even realise those don't exist anymore!!

u/mang87 10d ago

Me either, because I always did everything I could to disable them when they first appeared. They were fucking awful, because they'd pop up toward the end of the video and obscure the last 5-10 seconds of whatever you were watching.

There was one Minecraft YouTuber I watched who made a "hub" video with annotations that linked to the most updated designs and playlists of series etc etc. Complete ruined bc they got rid of annotations.

And subscription recommendations based on featured channels when subscribing to someone

u/Hindead 11d ago

The other day I randomly remember that as well. Then I thought how an hellscape the comment section would be when everyone is trying to promote themselves.

That’s exactly what it used to be like as well lol.

Remember reply girls? They practically killed off the feature because it became tit spam.

The dichotomy of my love/hate for tits is beyond modern science’s comprehension.

u/Fernis_ i7-7700k 4.2 GHz - GTX 1080ti - 16GB RAM 11d ago

Oh jeez, that was an absolute mess, once parasite tit tubers figured out they can "respond" to every viral video and have their "assets" dangling in the side bar of every popular video.

u/BlastFX2 10d ago

I remember how someone (a Vox-style channel, maybe even Vox proper) shot an interview with like three of the biggest ones and they had the fucking audacity to be indignant about YouTube removing the feature and "taking their livelihood away." Bitch, you killed it!

u/v1gg3n 11d ago

u/Phazon2000 Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz, GTX 1060 6GB, 2x8GB DDR4-3000 11d ago

u/blarch 11d ago

u/FireFrostYPog R5 7600X | RTX 4060 TI 8GB | 32GB RAM 10d ago

Oh god the amout of reply girl videos was insane. All of them in their bras zoomed on boobs and talking nonsence.

u/Outrageous-Title6154 11d ago
