That shit has been there for a LOOOONG time now. I have texts it automatically put there because I shared videos to people, and I think the oldest is 20 weeks? I don't know. It's been a minute at this point, but it's so useless and random that I never bothered to dig deeper. 😂😂

I remember this was a feature back in 2017? I used it all the time and then one day it disappeared. Surprised they brought it back 😂

Why tf is it easier to upload a video than to check your subscriptions

3

u/giitaru-kun 13h ago

my mind keeps pressing that button to have realized, wait they removed subscriptions in the bottom nav... now I have to go to home to get to it?

before I could go to subscriptions even if I was searching something if I remember

u/IdkLazyKnight 17h ago

You can swipe left and right to scroll the top menus, but yea fk that upload button

u/unabnormalday 16h ago

Thanks. I couldn’t find how to access them and was kinda pissed

u/padretemprano 16h ago

JFC. That is not intuitive at all to me. Thank you. It’s still annoying but that info makes it less so.

i actually liked the community post now it's kinda gone thanks glue sniffing YouTube people

2

u/PurpleInfinite1409 17h ago

What do you mean? The Community section is still alive and well

1

u/Plane_Ad_4600 16h ago

which is why i said kinda, before there was the ability to choose just post under the sub part

u/chessstone_mp4 18h ago

they want you to follow the algorithm, not creators, thats why subscriptions are moved to hell

1

u/chessstone_mp4 18h ago

i came to this sub to ask where they were asd i just found them on ur image

2

u/-aarrgh 15h ago

Even that “subs” button hides the video behind mountains of community posts and shorts, there’s literally no way to see a list of videos from your subscriptions now in the app.

u/hi-capper 13h ago

Not even that. Categories and the new to you tabs are just gone. The stock home screen is trash for years, and they removed the only way where I found new and fun content...

u/Top_Button_6679 19h ago

why do they always need to fuck around with the layout i swear to god, the layout was fine 10 years ago already why fiddle around with it????

4

u/ihatepeopleandyoutoo 16h ago

It feels like YouTube changes their layout every once an hour

4

u/metalsnake27 11h ago

Whats also gone is the categories on the home screen. Now its only and always the algorithm.

Youtube isnt so much about you anymore.

u/Senior_Muffin_7617 19h ago

Oh that's the issue I'm experiencing today hopefully it get solved.

u/PiratePercy550 19h ago

Looks like those fill in “memes” on DeviantART

u/Ok-Dust-9497 18h ago

I hate they making Disney+ on YouTube ads like they should get more money now we have to pay it to watch streaming

1

u/Justinrich2001 12h ago

We don't want that Disney+ pay bill anymore, we want butt DVD and Blu-ray physical media collection.

1

u/BisonDear2460 19h ago

I still have the old UI

1

u/Reneelovesme 18h ago

Is there anyway to switch it back? I'm honestly very irritated the last ui was actually helpful this is actually shit

1

u/Spmspawn 18h ago

If you uninstall all updates then get an APK of whatever version it was last week it'll fix it

1

u/ouiouibaggette 16h ago

it legit took me 2 minutes to figure our where my subscriptions went

1

u/BSSNV2947 16h ago

It’s hell, but Hank Hill on the bottom is making sure it’s a clean-burning hell

1

u/Brief_Pitch_6014 16h ago

If you scroll down in the subscription tab, the top menu starts seizing.

1

u/Common_Floor_7195 16h ago

Looks like Android only

1

u/Responsible_Bar3957 15h ago

Dawg I can’t even see the little red circle thing when one of the people I’m subbed to posts? What’s even the point of subscribing if I don’t get alerted immediately when they post?

u/mystyc 15h ago

When there is a choice between a browser-based version or an app, I always choose the former, if I can manage. Most of these apps are invasive, advertisement pumping crap that are just not customizable.

1

u/Zer0_Kenway 14h ago

This app update looks like absolute shit. So now its better to create a short than to see the channels im subbed to? wtf are they thinking with this garbage.

u/brainrott7 12h ago

even hank is mad

1

u/No-Oil2154 8h ago

Hank is looking at the ad on top

u/MrMiguelT 5h ago

They won't add folder subs for dedicated topics of interest so instead they mess with their users controlled habit of clicking the bottom.

1

u/HandBananaBandana 5h ago

Yeah I opened the app for the first time in a while and kept exiting out bc this looked soo wrong. I kept trying to fix it

u/Nicolas-Rocks-6859 4h ago

Oh I miss the days when search actually worked not just showing me slightly related videos and more unreleted recommendations. And I remember that back then when I watched a video from a playlist it would recommend me next item from that playlist, now it's just another home recommendation.
