Comments on YouTube videos that are made for kids are Disabled.

I feel your pain Sunset.

What if this is all because they want to discriminate against the brony community?

Seems like Youtube fucked things up since the start of the infamous year 2020 or just a few days before it.
 
You know, even Cupcakes HD got this shit before, Youtube’s biggest sin ever for its recklessness, now it is fixed.

coppa will be the death of yutube

I feel ya, Sunset..  
I want to see how other fans react to certain clips of MLP, but I can’t even see that now because of YouTube’s/COPPA’s bs there.

@redweasel  
Thanks.

it’s pretty easy to use, yeah. a little unstable though, and there’s basically two devs at the moment so it’s hard to keep everything working right together. if I knew anything better, I’d use it.
 
if you manage to get your certificate to retroshare.ch and peer with them, then I can peer with them too, to try to hook us together as peers. and I can uh… answer any questions. the site is probably better at answering them than me though, so check it out first.

@redweasel  
Is retroshare pretty easy to use?

Oh come on. I bet it was going to be some nonsense.

@Pone 2.0
 
it’s not young. it’s retro.
 
but yeah.

@redweasel  

 
Site looks young hope it’ll grow one day.

YOUTUBE IS GOING TO HELL

@ApplejackFan204  
that’s it we are going to newgrounds!

in all honesty, anyone who has even a small following online could leverage a patreon to get money, and then torrents to put out videos and a mega account to host an archive.
 
you may not get the same discoverability as youtube, but the means to make it work is already there, so if youtube died tomorrow I wouldn’t worry to much. on that note, youtube will never go away even if it is fully in the red and they make no profit because the clout they get by shaping opinion is too powerful.

@Danielm  
These days, people can’t share their opinions anymore.

When many believe you-tube had gone downhill after COPPA had to mess up the site when the further way downhill is many who created a channel on the video sharing website also had turned off the comment section when a few boards on deviant also had the comments turned off.

@Background Pony #D3DA  
They are messing up what was a great site when there weren’t many alternatives, now it seems they are trying to fail.

@Pone 2.0  
We must find a new medium, as it would appear they are deliberately trying to properly snuff YT by making it unappealing as possible in the face of alternatives, when it was fine the way it was when there was little competition.

@Pone 2.0
 
Disney Channel sure but not the main Disney YouTube and Oh My Disney. At least not from the videos I have seen.

I feel the same they even shut down comments on Disney Nick and Cartoon Network’s YouTube official channel

@Background Pony #4906
 
Even things like the old “Cartoons that Never Made it” skits on Cartoon Network have their comments disabled. Skits which include such content as a dog with rabies and a dancing fish which then dies, rots, and a fly even walks on the fish’s eye (he died with his eyes open).

Not just FiM and EQG, but most copyrighted content, family especially. I notice that non copyrighted works and PG-13 stuff remains largely unaltered, save older ones whose channels simply did not want comments to begin with.

@Andrewl1995  
Then it’s off to newgrounds
