The app is getting worse and worse to use. They make unnecessary changes to the UI (that are honestly ugly and annoying) and the app often just breaks (i.e: videos having a black screen, shorts not playing in the right order, and other such nonsense things happening.) If YouTube wasn't such a giant in the industry I'd have left at this point. I might just stop using the app if it keeps breaking and getting worse. I pay for YouTube premium and everything

AdvertiserTube is the best platform to watch all the stuff you are not interested in or not genuinely looking for. I love that I go to watch a 30 sec. news clip, but first here's a minute long boner bill ad followed by an outdoor lighting for the small. to meduim mansion I can afford. AdvertiserTube truely has their finger on the pulse of people who use the platform. Now if they just get rid of that skip button altogether and not let you turn off the screen with out 2 to 3 more ads.

This app gets worse with each update. I can see someone is trying to justify their job by constantly changing things that aren't broken. Good luck trying to delete more than 1 short from your history at a time. Also fun when you have a video playing in mini mode and it gets paused. Hitting the play button doesn't resume the video like you would think. No, no, no. Hitting the play button plays a brand new video. Great job constantly "fixing" things that aren't broken. 🙄
