My Thoughts On YouTube

Hi,
Today I'm going to be ranting, which is something I haven't done on this blog before. I'm going to be sharing my thoughts on YouTube and YouTubers because I watch a lot of YouTube and obviously there is things that annoy me.
If you liked this, let me know so I know if I should do more of these.
Lets get started...
 

Unrelated Videos
On pretty much all YouTube videos I watch, I get the video '11 year old allergic to sunlight' and I know I'm not the only person as loads of people complain about it. I don't watch anything like that so I'm not sure why it's staying in my recommendations. I also get videos in my recommendations such as:
  • 'I Was Almost Kidnapped| Storytime'
  • SUPRISE PREGNANCY ANNOUNCMENT| Our Reactions (How did that get there?!?)
  • 'Foundation Review: L'Oreal Paris Infallible 24hr
  • Keeping Up With The Kardashians (which I have already seen)
It's super annoying and as there is a lot of people complaining, YouTube should definitely sort it out. 
 
Commenters
On lots of YouTubers videos (like PointlessBlog, Zoella, SacconeJolys and lots of popular ones) I always see the same commenters who reply to their own comment to get top comment so they can promote their channels. I get everyone wants to promote their channel but there's other ways of doing it and the comments section is not for promoting, it's for complimenting or giving constructive criticism to the YouTuber.  The ones I always see is Adela, Noa and this Dave guy but I can't remember his surname.
To stop this, these comments should be banned as I hate it.
 
Adverts In The Middle Of Videos
Okay, YouTubers need to make money but when there's adverts in the middle (sometimes it's not even in the middle), it's really annoying as they're placed in the worst possible places. Usually the YouTuber is telling a story or something good is happening and then an advert plays (usually Netflix and I have strong opinions on that).
To resolve this, YouTube shouldn't have the adverts in the middle of the video as you do get them when you click on the video and have them at the end (when the videos finished).
 
* Pauses to jam out to Worth It*
 
YouTubers Bringing Out Books
At first it was ok with Zoella bringing out Girl Online (side note super excited for Girl Online: On Tour which I'll be getting on the day it comes out) but now everyone is doing it. If you want to bring something else, bring out something oringial. Jim Chapman is a good example of this as he didn't want to copy everyone and bring out a book so he released a stationary line. I have a few YouTuber books (Girl Online, The Glam Guide, Love Tanya, Life With A Sprinkle Of Glitter and I Hate MySelfie) but there's so many. I do want to get Girl Online: On Tour and The Amazing Book Is Not On Fire by Dan & Phil.
 
That's all for today,
I hope you enjoyed this ranting post and leave me some feedback.
See you soon,
Louise
