Youtube is broken on my phone again.

[davidb11]

For some reason I'm getting worse and worse issues with commenting on my phone on Youtube.
No matter what.

It's now become completely random when I am allowed to comment.
Otherwise, the comment is posted, but it never is actually posted.
And if I try to edit the message, it just says, "Comment failed to post."
It's also impossible to get any support on Youtube at all.
So, I don't even know how to address this at all.

But something is completely broken and the only thing I can think of is somehow there is a hidden limit to how many comments you can make in a 2 day period or something.

And somehow I hit it and I hit it a lot.

But I don't think there is a limit on Youtube commenting.
I would imagine it just hits you with some "Hey are you sure you're not a bot." message or something after a certain point.

Not just randomly sends your messages to the shadow realm.
I've been having this issue for over a year, and honestly, it doesn't happen as bad as it has been happening now.

Do I need a new phone? LOL.

I don't know what NewPipe is.
Is that a fancier version of Youtube on the phone?

Anybody else have an idea here?

You might be shadow banned on youtube. I heard that a lot of people are saying they are.

Yeah, but I don't understand how that works at all.
Like, huh?

Why would that be a thing based on just posting apparently too much?

All it takes is someone don't like what you posted so they and their friends reported it. And bam shadow banned and you will never know why but none of your posts will stick.

Just using ctrl+v can get you flagged as a spammer and banned. I registered with Alphabet youtube for a day or two, then cancelled and never looked back.

Well, I only use Youtube on my phone, so I can't copy/paste.
Also how could they do that, unless you made too many quick posts?
Also, what's Newpie?

That's weird, because the last time I got something to happen from people reporting my posts, all I got was like a day long time out from making comments.
And that was nearly a year ago.

SO, why would they switch things over to fake blocking your comments instead of just making you incapable of posting for a day.

It's google who knows their reasoning for most of the stuff they do.

And you can copy and paste on a phone on youtube well at least on android not sure about apple phones.

If you long press on a word you will get 2 upside down tear drops to drag over what you want to copy then a box should pop up above it to copy it. Then long press to paste it. But this is for android as that is what i use.

this is what youtube does, i have had several phones and tablets reach end of youtube update life, which sadly youtube app will never connect or work with those cellphones or devices again, web browser function for youtube still works.

youtube app has always been problematic with new updates and issues such as cache errors. this is sorta the same type of thing steam has been doing, which is updating constantly and forcing older devices to reach a end of life even when they still function just fine.

we need to stop forced end of life for outdates due to application updating, these things should be a choice and not forced upon customers.
