YouTube has become my go-to destination for entertainment, education, and inspiration. The platform's vast library of videos covers every imaginable topic, from music and gaming to cooking and DIY projects. I appreciate the diversity of content creators on YouTube, each offering their unique perspective and expertise. Whether I'm looking for a quick laugh, learning a new skill, or discovering new music, YouTube never fails to deliver. The user-friendly interface, personalized recommendations, and seamless streaming experience make it easy to lose myself in hours of endless entertainment. With YouTube, there's always something new to discover, and I'm grateful for the endless source of inspiration it provides.
YouTube is a nauseating platform! Does anybody remember a video from 2011 of a girl in a red hoody tossing puppies in a river? Yah YouTube still has her video up on the platform! YouTube also allows dog meat videos on there too 🤢🤮 Along with people doing yoga butt naked and blurred porn even though they have a no nudity policy! I'm switching to Rumble! Rumble isn't full of disgusting and vulgar videos or users stealing YouTubers videos and channel names! People and parents do yourself and your children a favor and switch to Rumble because YouTube is not taking down this crap!
YouTube started as a beacon of hope for all those fleeing mainstream cable or seeking to expand their perspectives or learn actively on the go. Lately, it has experienced a harrowing sequence of updates which have degenerated it into a shadow of its former self: restrictions on free speech, agressive demonetization of promising content by faulty algorithms without the opportunity for appeal, as much as 3 advertisements at multiple points in videos—even on those under 1 minute—as well as multiple banners occupying much of your screen at any given moment, many of which contain outright pornographic material (reporting them either goes nowhere or creates change far too late)…
The list goes on! One should only surf google for a few seconds to find abundant criticism of many of the latest decisions made by YouTube, amongst no praise whatsoever.
Without a doubt, once a viable competitor emerges (and it's only a matter of time), YouTube will be losing most, if not all of its now-disenchanted user base.
People are clamoring for change, YouTube. It's time to listen and act. Your time is running out.

I am very happy/disappointed with them, because there wasn't anything they can do with bullies. I hope for new ideas in their business to make it less harassing and more caring.
Tip for consumers:

PLEASE Do Not Waste Your Money shopping with this company! They are by far the worst online company I've ever shopped. I HAVE BEEN WAITING ALMOST ONE YEAR FOR A REFUND! They have given me the run around and will not respond to my emails claiming their system has changed when I am able to speak to a rep. AGAIN, PLEASE DON'T SHOP ALLOY APPAREL! YOU WILL BE DISSAPOINTED!

I ordered 3 pairs of boots from Alloy, I wish i was writing about how nice they were but I have yet to get them, they were shipped on Jan 16th 2013. I have called customer service three times since then, on the website it claims Canadian shipping is 7 to 10 business days, after I ordered it claims its 10 to 15 business days, I was told 21 business days by the Alloy rep tonight, be where if ordering from Canada!

This Company states 100% Guarantee & 2 Year Warranty. Their WIFI830 Trail Camera DOESN'T WORK & VISIONNER WILL NOT REFUND YOUR PURCHASE even though they state on their web site 100% guarantee. THEY CLAIM 24/7 SUPPORT BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION & THEY CHARGE A FEE. NO ONE ANSWER THE PHONE DUE TO "THEY ARE NOT AVAILABLE DURING PEAK HOURS". THE SUPPORT WEBSITE "*******@visionner.com " comes back as a mailer failure. This company is a SCAM.
Tip for consumers:
DO NOT BUY FROM VISIONNER THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM. I purchased 3-Visionner WIFI830 Trail Camera as a Christmas present & they don't work. THERE IS NO 24/7 customer support unless you give some company called Just Answer your credit card information for a fee. They DON'T answer their phone. I tried their *******@tryvisionner.com it was return back to my e-mail as a failure. There is no 100% guarantee & No 2 year Warranty. They refuse to let me return their product because it was past 30 day

Why is it necessary to see so many advertisements when watching a video or listening to music? Has You Tube even considered the fact that some customers are paying for minuites and the advertisements waste a lot of those minutes? This was once an excellent app but, now it is much like regular TV. I can't even listen to a few songs without seeing about 3 commercials after each song and sometimes in the middle of an extended version song... and don't try listening to a meditation video or instructional video... The ads actually discourage me from purchasing any goods or services from the businesses that use this medium for advertisement. Commercials are actually a source of irritation for someone trying to escape the chaos in the world. This is not fair to the customer. You Tube has a lot of great information but, it is losing its status... I would have given this application a 5 star rating but, the resentment from being forced to listen to "mandatory" advertisements while using minutes that I purchased with MY money will only allow me to give this application two stars. Currently, the You Tube experience is like having a lovely gourmet meal in a public bathroom. Hopefully, things will improve as I would love to be the first to write a 5 star review.
Tip for consumers:
In my opinion, there are a lot of ads.

I originally started watching You Tube because I could filter the information that I received and could enjoy meditation & How To videos without losing my focus due to irritating commercials. Now, during the middle of a meditation video or How To video, an advertisement pops in changing my focus and attempting to force me to accept ideas in which I have no interest. I believe that commercials/advertisements are nothing but subliminal messages. I stopped watching television for this reason... You can pay a fee to avoid seeing the advertisements, which is ethically incorrect, or continue to watch the foolishness. I would have given You Tube a high rating because it can provide a lot of useful information for folks that are interested in learning. As for the negative content, I personally believe that You tube should sensor the content given that children are exposed to and easily influenced by negative videos that do not support a healthy, happy and healthy lifestyle. As healthy adults, we can elect to ignore the negativity but, children are a a "growing crossroad" and need positive guidance in order to become decent and productive citizens. I will not discuss the psychologically challenged folks that do not need the negative exposure to "certain content"...

YouTube used to give you one ad once every 7-12 minutes. But now it gives DOUBLE ADS EVERY TWO MINUTES! I watch more ads than actual videos at this point and I am about ready to sue YouTube or get it shut down.

I have been ordering from Alloy Apparel since 2007. I was so excited to find a site that catered to my 5' 11" body frame. They WERE affordable and on trend. WHAT HAPPENED ALLOY? Since they've "relocated " and "updated " their website, the prices are REDICULOUS! $5 for extended sizes and $2 for 35-47" inseams? Really ALLOY? For this reason am I no longer excited to visit the website. Not to mention that there are no longer "colorful" jeans/pants/cords/sweaters to chose from. C'mon Alloy and get it together please!

BUYER BEWARE - Alloy used to be an amazing store with incredible customer service. It was my hidden gem for tall apparel at a reasonable cost. Not so much anymore!
Since going exclusively tall Alloy has ditched their care for their customer and become a terrible option for online. They may have done away with the "restocking fee" but after reading the details of their return policy and seeing that they have a "rejected return fee" if you don't return an item in all of its original packaging, as well as they do not do any sort of exchanges, so you are forced to pay shipping costs three times should the fit not be right (and well since every pair of jeans is made by a different company - no two fits are the same)... so that means you're paying almost $30 extra! CRAZY and so not worth it. And don't get me started on when you call the customer service line because they are RUDE.
So sad to see this gem of an option turn into what it has. I used to recommend it to every tall girl I met... now all I have to say is BUYER BEWARE.
