I think the addition of this feature to YouTube warrants a “WTF”. It doesn’t match the YouTube business model paved over the past 5 years. All categorization used to be user-generated (uploader’s tags) unless the categorization was as simple as 5 stars or +/- likes. Now, the categorization of feedback is being shunted into 6 bins, 6 fixed genres, whose names have a questionable level of professionalism to them.
use vimeo you fookin townies
I feel like youtube is just adding pointless features because they feel like they have to not become stagnant. Google.com as well, but to a lesser extent. Which makes sense since they’re owned by the same parent company.
They should remember what happened the last major internet company that did that. It was called Myspace.
Yeah, whether it be a pointless interface change or an annoying homepage setup, I think that YouTube is starting to act seriously fucking retarded.
Even more so than their usual pestering.
^Bscly, except that it is Google that owns YouTube and not some company that owns both.
The most hateful thing on YouTube is the fact that when the bots check if the uploader of the video has watched it 300 times on videos from a popular channel, the view count freezes on 303 views. This makes people create comments like “303 views and 5567 likes? LOL”, “Leik if ur teh 303th wievr and if not ur a fagot” or “like if you came before 303 views”.
Other “thumbs up”-/“Like”-comments, “the 346 people who disliked the video is…”-comments and other spam is also annoying the shit out of me! The worst one is when I saw a comment that said “This comment is glitched, you can like it 5 times”.
Where did the clever, funny and informative comments go?
People exploit the categorization and tags so they needed a viewer generated system of categorizing. Unfortunately (like the like/dislike over stars) because this is a mass thing they needed to dumb it down.
Why are you guys acting like google is some evil entity for adding features?
The capitalist side of google is retarded, but it is still good for searching! 
Google, Inc. owns google.com and youtube. I was differentiating between Google the multimedia and technology company, which is awesome, and google.com, which is increasingly cluttered with crap – but still fairly awesome.
It’s too mainstream for them.
I didn’t say that. I said they have been adding unnecessary features to both youtube and google.com. And they have.
Google is a smart company, so I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt that they’re just experimenting. But part of the reason I started using those sites is because they weren’t cluttered with crap, unlike the competition.
