If you know the title cant you just search it.

It is probably so people dont get cancelled. Videogamedunkey had some homophobic content in his early videos.

Doubt it. It's likely just YouTube being YouTube.

My fault I shouldnt have guess why. And just reacted to the news. Like I did in the first line. If I were to make a better guess maybe it is to push new videos.

You also can't sort by most popular on a channel either.

Man the website continues to get shittier.

Instagram is worse they turned off the followers toggle. So now you get a bunch a random people's IG posts on your front page.

Yeah, this is a bad change. There's numerous channels I frequent which have so many videos that the best way for me to find the one I'm looking for is to search from the opposite end.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you posted will be misquoted, then be used against you.

Yeah, it really sucks that the Big Tech sites make it harder to search for older things even though they might be useful for the user. It was harder than I thought to get to older videos for a particular game even though there was a lot of useful stuff pushing a decade old.

Similar thing has happened with Amazon. I've looked for books on particular subjects and gotten inadequate results, only to stumble upon old out of print books in real life that were exactly what I was looking for. Said books only seemed to show up on Amazon's search if you search for them by their actual name, not the subject matter.

DeviantArt also recently removed the ability for users to search their Favorites, which is a problem if you've been on the site for years and have pages and pages of favorites artwork.

I really don't understand why these companies keep trying to make their products worse.

Because they think, whether it is true or not, that it will lead to growth.
