What If YouTube Let Us Replace Videos? 

The last place I expected his majesty to pop up was here, I'm pleasantly surprised :D

Instead of adding correction in the description, you could pin a comment.

I feel like the annotation pop up things worked back in the day. As annoying as they were sometimes they were very good for this kind of thing.

I can bet that this person never noticed bigger mistakes made and those escaped his "thorough" radar. I wonder, are these kind of people so perfect, flawless to have this kind of mentality or they're overly critical of themselves as well. Perfection doesn't exist so they're sad, pathetic if they overreact.

I actually work with printers professionally, and that was a hard error to ignore. Especially since the whole premise of the video was ink cartridges are a scam and dishonest... you can't afford to be dishonest in a situation like that.

@@durrrhurrrderpderpderp9932 Article 13 has hone through. Google Article 13 copyright.

@@miksuko How does it work then? It will force the copyright responsibility on the platforms. The platforms need to make sure in that case that the videos won't contain any copyrighted material. RU-vid can't hire enough lawyers to go through all the millions of hours uploaded. This means that either all videos uploaded will be very few because they will be on a selected whitelist or an algorithm will judge and an algorithm can't decide on fair use/parody use/educational use/citation use. An algorithm will have to decide if something is fair use, which is actually a judge's job. The system will assume that you are guilty before it can decide that you are innocent.

Right now, Article 13 doesn't do much of anything because it has not enforcement with it. It asks EU member states to implement their own enforcement programs over the next two years. Until those laws are actually drawn up somewhere, we can't really will be like. In any case, it's super weird that the fear is that a law meant to take power away from companies like Google is feared by the people who are used by Google. Frankly, these laws are most likely not going to do much to RU-vid at all. They are more likely to go after things like Google Translate, which scours the internet and steals translations that people worked hard to make.

@@melchid8448 I think a good number would. This is how Wikipedia works.

Cancel culture people and drama channels would likely use it the most as it would give them more information to go off of

Yeah but this is a place where people will accuse others of stealing content before checking the upload dates

Press F for annotations

Yeah, but the previous version of annotations on RU-vid was terrible. It didn't work with a lot of devices, including mobile and TV. It was overused by a lot of people, adding to annoyance. I agree though. They should have updated the annotation system rather than outright deleting it.

@@ronzy_ronz FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

If they had it where only the uploaded of the video could add annotations it could work better. Make it similar to the “i” icon so it doesn’t flood the whole screen, make it compatible with mobile and tv, and bam. Perfect

Too bad people abused them, which is why we can't have nice things.

Salome You can’t view them on the mobile apps and that’s the primary way users see videos now

@@KevinContreras2013 Why couldn't they just make them work on mobile or replace them with a version that does instead of removing them altogether?

Seriously, RU-vid HAD a way to make small corrections to text/dialogue/facts/whatever, AND IT WORKED JUST FINE UNTIL THEY REMOVED IT FOR NO REASON.

I think we all want them back.

@@DoctorFalchion they removed it because every single spammy YT video had 800 of them covering the entire screen linking to their subscription or summin shady

Yeah, and the solution would've been really simple: set some reasonable limits to how many annotations are allowed for a given timeframe, and leave it at that. But nope, Google prefers to kill features and products rather than improve their shit. As a software developer, I'm surprised that any geek/engineer would _choose_ to work at such a place where our natural instinct to improve things is constantly being opposed and denied.

@@FriskyD. are you...

This is what i think is best too.

I like what vox does which is they use the cards with the i on them to correct and add corrections

Most people still don't read the comments either though

@@krombopulos_michael Yeah but I'd say more people read comments than people who don't. Plus if they was going to comment about the mistake or problem they'd have to scroll past the pinned comment.

Or you could add a card

Bless your soul

this comment fills me with so much joy

You need to make compilations dedicated to Austin's wheezing.

You're not the hero we deserve, but the one we need.

Yes.

Considering the fact RU-vid removed annotations and now is taking away viewer polls, I think they aren't super in interested in quality of life features that don't directly make them money (It's probably expensive server-wise to keep up those features, I just mourn them)

This is, in my opinion, the correct solution. Leave all the old videos viewable, but hidden (tho the ability to remove/blur/redact as needed). you'd have to click the little button in the bottom right (next to share and save) to see the different versions. That, and likely a policy of not fundamentally changing the content itself, but that would require moderating, which means this would have to be limited to verified channels. The same should apply for twitter and comments in general. Add the ability to edit, but keep the history. (I edited this reply to add this line for example.)

@@deefdragon You can do just that in playstore reviews

It's not like you could see the previous version of a comment, so even if they added that they wouldn't add it.

"And what to do when they get they get certain facts and figures wrong and what to do about it"

i rather just have a whole new upload because i do not want this feature due to slight gaslighting that could occur. not that i dont trust most people to be responsible but it just a pandora's box

Maybe videos would have edit history where you could watch the outdated videos.

@@Fupicat I was about to comment the same thing. Have a little sidebar with the history and people would know when and what has been edited

@@HelloLillyTV But I'm sure that, if that was implemented, there would be some way for companies to pay RU-vid to remove their history.

Entity Entertainment: exactly, had to scroll through quite a few comments before I found someone who pointed out the obvious. If you can just upload a new video, on the same URL, and keep the same title/stats/..., then it would be way too easy to just replace a video where you do something really nasty by a cleaned up version, and nobody would know (especially if you cull the comments and monitor them for as long as the average Internet warrior's attention span). Fupicat: I don't think having an edit list would work. Wikipedia has it. Who even looks at it? Hell, people can't even be arsed to read the bloody descriptions on YT. How many times haven't you seen people ask "where can I buy that?" or "what product did you use to do XYZ?" when the description is full of affiliate links to all the products used in the video? Furthermore, we're not talking about simple edits (cut a section, changed narration, added small section for clarity); we're talking about replacing an entire video. Which is how it would work, due to the fact that videos are edited locally before uploading. If that video happens to be 10 minutes long, and the replacement also, then you'd have to watch 20 minutes of video to see what changed. And you might still miss things. You, me, we might check a video's edit history (although honestly I doubt even I could be bothered), but most folks won't.

Annotations gone :(

I miss annos. It was a simpler time.

Yeah, maybe they could call it annotations or something

Annotations would fix so many issues. I hate that RU-vid got rid of them.

(In my opinion) THIS IS GENIUS!!!

There is a logistical issue with that though. RU-vid would have to keep al those different versions of those videos up somewhere. I don't how much extra video storage that would cost them but maybe they wouldn't consider it worthwhile

@@nevs0917 I don't know if you have consider the sheer amount of content it's uploaded every second to RU-vid. But computer scientists are smarter then that. For example you just have to say the edited parts of the videos and then some compression Magic.

@@nevs0917 they have millions of petabytes open. They can handle it. As a software engineer, I can tell you this will be fine. Plus, some people will already replace their videos by re uploading and deleting. Deleting a RU-vid video doesn't actually delete it. Every video ever uploaded to RU-vid is still on RU-vid. When you delete a video it just becomes inaccessible to the public.

@@nevs0917 It's the same as having a another upload button that does the same exact thing but in a different location, it wouldn't affect storage that much.

@@miksuko I have noticed that a lot of people already click away whenever a youtuber has an ad at the end of the video. Most people wouldn't see an added piece of video after an ad.

I don't know about the ink thing, but the heartstone video was pretty bad. I don't even know much about the game, yet i still noticed lots of wrong information in the video which weren't just "mistakes", they were actual fake facts made to make the game seem bad. Then i read the comments and i guess that video just shouldn't be made at all. I just hope not every video from this guy is as fake as that one.

Or a printer company attorney.

Ya, I can't find any proof anywhere that Cyan makes black blacker. It fundamentally doesn't make much sense.

Or a lazy troll

I don’t know. There are some people... who don’t like “know it alls,” and are fundamentally annoyed by the idea of people being curious and interested in various topics and able to pull out facts and figures at a moment’s notice. And because most of them realize saying, “I think it’s annoying that you like knowledge so much,” isn’t a good look, they try to pivot to find anything to latch onto to have a semblance of a fig leaf over their dislike of the person they’re attacking. This guy found a mistake Austin made and laid into him probably not because of how intensely he feels about ink mixes, but because Austin’s lifelong learner kind of mindset bugs the crap out of him and this is a credible error he can jump up and down on. Most people seem mildly interested with random information, but it’s not an interest of theirs, or they don’t hate it. Some people, like me, are really into minutia, factoids. But there’s a group who are just.... almost offended by it. Anyone who relishes information that much is seen to be a try hard, someone fronting, because they can’t reeeallly be that smart. When all the person is trying to do is relay information, not make a statement of intelligence. It’s really weird, and it always takes me aback when I run into it. I enjoy talking to people about random topics I find interesting, and the conversations that come up because of it are usually well worth the time and fun to me. But people who kind of... keep engaging you and eventually explode because of how indignant they are because of your newly acquired know it all status, they are definitely people to watch out for. It’s a bit startling when they go off. It’s not enough to say you have very different opinions on what a good conversation is, or that we choose to have very different hobbies. They have to just... lay into you and list the reasons why you’re actually a joke and imposter and a try hard and just like their mother, who uses knowledge to make other people feel small, etc. They are dead set on making their problem into your problem. I hate that happened to Austin, but with his channel being this big, I’m surprised I’ve not seen more people hating on him about it. “Stop trying to sound like you know everything,” and the like. I’m glad it’s as positive as it is; a lot of times this kind of content can get hit by people who just... fundamentally dislike the lifelong learner attitude and kind of hate watch. I’m glad he’s not letting them get him down. It should remain their problem and not his.

It was u wasn't it

Hi Tim!

​@@BeBoBE It's not really true. He's a high profile content creator, and as such he can speak with fairness about the general creator's experience - a correction/update loop would be a big problem, not because of your own decision, but because that option itself creates certain expectations from your audience. Another thing is that such a tool would allow for a disgusting amount of abuse.

@@NitinPatelIndia are you being serious? There's plenty of ways to keep whatever needs updating updated. You clearly never worked in any creative field, otherwise you'd know how absurd it is to demand someone to re-edit their hard work indefinitely.

Too much storage

@@lizardtheguy Do you have any other suggestions as to how we can edit videos, and still have little to no problems? Thanks for putting this in, by the way.

@@lizardtheguy This is RU-vid. At this point their storage is workably infinite. I don't really think that with their ability to store and process years worth of content hourly, an edit would be a deal breaker.

It would not. Is the feature being abused on Vimeo? Let us update videos.

Stfu

I...don't get the point of this comment. Is it funny? No. Is it informative? No. What the fuck is this.

@@Melkac it was clearly funny to him. it was written in the style of a joke, and makes it obvious that that is the case. try not to be oblivious

Dai Because the common usage of “irony” isn’t really correct, I’d not call it irony, but the coincidence of the video about reuploads being reuploaded created a state of cognitive dissonance for that OP, resulting in a feeling of humor. Thus, posting a joke. Humor is subjective, so it’s no matter that you may not have found it funny. However in that case, you don’t have to post your confusion or disapproval. That was entirely up to you. Hopefully over time, we will all make better choices.

Katie Acero, Annotations

As a Graphic Designer, adding Cyan to the black to make the black to Rich Black to make the blacker and pop out more for print but that's less common now and it really depends on the print company and machine they are using. Some want to add 10% to the black of CMY but some have other way to make it more black. But the general rule you don't want to go over 300% of CMYK but that has change to with digital which I haven't don't too much anymore because most of my work is digital.
