so wait, now the only way to see when someone makes a comment is to check your email?
who the hell wanted that feature. I just picture youtube programers asking users what features they would like to see. And for some reason not being able to read there comments was something they wanted.

They just want more people to use their POS Google+. Wanna see new comments? Better get that Google+.

I don't even remember the last time I complained about comments.

But yes, the new YouTube comment system is a piece of shit.

You know, some of the times Facebook has updated its UI, I've complained and then realized it's not so bad.

YouTube...it's always shit. It just gets worse.

The only silver lining here is that you can post links in the comments more easily now. Definitely not worth it though.

Seems like pretty much all the career youtubers hate it too:

I keep getting all these google plus notifications about people adding me to their circles and sharing my videos and i have no idea what any of it means. "Social media integration" can go die in a fire.

yeah, it seems like if google is ever going to fix something it might be this.
But based on past changes it seems unlikely they will do anything to improve it, and I think there is 0 chance of a roll back.
As bad as it is, it's not even top 5 things I don't like about the u2b design.

According to Angry Joe, YT will stop having auto-approval of monetization in January. That means you'll have to wait for hours or DAYS before your video goes up. I'm also worried that they might become total music nazis when this happens, not letting you monetize videos with even VG-Music in them.

Twitter. I don't really know what he's doing, but he seems to have gotten some insider information out of it.

EDIT: NVM, found it. Since Machinima is so good at ignoring, I hope they ignore my request so my channel will be free within 30 days.

Cool, this is the first really good change I've seen YT do in quite some time.

On my subscription feed, it doesnt give me the option for "more" at the bottom of screen to see anything else. It seems it like capped at 30 vids, so if you missed a vid that was posted a few days ago you cant see it.

Anyway to fix this?

Nope, apparently Youtube feels you don't need to be able to see any videos older than a day anymore, because hey, who cares about old stuff, right?... -.-

What's RSS? I keep seeing those small buttons here and there, but I have no idea what it actually is.
