You forget to insert that maybe?

So you have a youtube channel ...I didn't look any further than the video, but I see you have 2 subscribers ...I have 3 or 4 and have never even published anything ...ha

BTW, while I'm thinkin' about it ...Did youtube fuk up your Home page? ..Mine is essentially ruined as of 2-3 days ago ...The thumbnails for the videos are like 3 times the size now and only fit 3 across the screen, whereas it used to fit 5 ....Also, they're not categorized anymore ...They used to be organized in different categories, like *Recommended* ...*Top News* .. *From Your Subscriptions*, etc... Now they're just randomly scattered ...and there's not nearly as many to choose from ...Just wondering if they changed their whole format or what

No, I wanted to see how many clicks my tube would get by people going directly to YouTube to view it. I posted the link in 6 or 7 places.

Yeah, YT is experimenting with some new "beta" thingy. You can revert back to your original setup or do some experimenting on your own. Click on your av at the top right of your YT home page.

in beta, you can see the "analytics" of your videos/

They want more people to use the beta version to increase internet traffic share, and they show you how you can make money, which of course increases their ad revenue at the same time.

What am I some kinda computer nerd? ..heheh ..I'd like to be able to grab selected sections out of videos ...I have a "Screen Shot & Screen Video Recorder" app but it works for crap ...or I don't know WTH I'm doing, just as likely

I don't like that new format at all ...I don't get why they'd entice people to try to make money from ad revenue while they've been indiscriminately demonetizing videos and entire channels for no apparent reason for the past year or so

...a lotta people were making a living from ad revenue on their videos ...I wish I got in on the ground floor at youtube ...a lotta them guys became *millionaires* making youtube vids ...I don't know what I'd make videos about, but it couldn't be any more worthless and stupid than a lotta them

...look at that guy PewDiePie ..he's a millionaire from those stupid videos ..All he does is play video games, rate memes, and talk stoopid shit ...all right in a little room ...Then a lotta them traveled around the world reporting on events in different countries ..they're the ones that have been targeted with demonetizing, banning, censoring ..the ones that still have channels are afraid to say anything wrong anymore ...afraid to even swear .. they hafta get funding now from donations from their subscribers and selling T shirts and shit cuz youtube cut off their ad revenue

I guess all that started when Google bought youtube .. Now they *want* youtubers to make money from ads? ..heh

heh ...sorry to carry on ...you prolly know all that ...it really irks me tho ...I hate censorship...some of my favorite channels were nixed ...youtube was great a few years ago when people could say what they want ... I'll always keep an account there cuz they must have the largest selection of music in the worls

My home page got screwed over as well

Three across on thumbnails. The only fix I could do was to press Ctrl and the minus sign at the same time to reduce the page size which increased the thumbnails showing. It changes the text, but I usually scan just the thumbnails anyway.

In doing this, I now also get some of the header features back, like Recommended, From your subscriptions, Top news, Latest YouTube posts, YouTube Mixes....
