Why does this keep happening? I told Gemini to make no mistakes, FFS.

The amount of bugs in the Youtube app has been crazy lately. They’re clearly relying heavily on vibecoding.

I think its done by design to drive people away from using a browser where people have more control and the website has less control (of course depending on the skill and patience of the user) Having a shitty service on browser and on certain devices just drives people to view Youtube more and more on self contained smart services like Smart TVs or dedicated viewing devices. I use Linux, firefox and have ad blocking extensions … and sometimes Youtube just becomes unusable

I have been using YouTube Redux and the element remover tool of Ublock Origin… Makes Youtube much more pleasant (plus makes it look like it used to before the stupid UI updates)

The app gets messed up on my Japanese LG TV every now and again (and I seem to have lost the ability to thumbs-up videos again), but it’s never been unusable. The app on my android phone looks fine at the moment.

Apple is at least as at fault here. The new ui system they introduced about a year ago is a shitshow

Certainly a slop quality update

They forgot to say to the AI that it should not make mistakes.

Is that a download button I see? If so that means the UI has been edited by a third party tool, and this can’t really be blamed on Google…

Ahh so this is why I can’t just connect to a chromecast anymore. I have to start a video before the icon appears. Bravo boys…

The A/B test produced less dislikes, therefore succeeded, enable 100%

Isn't it unbelievable how multi-billion-dollar corporations push out updates that should never have been released, despite the warnings from their undoubtedly highly competent developers? That alone says everything you need to know about the times we live in... It seems we've reached the end of the road for hyper-capitalism.
