YouTube is past its prime: The lack of categories

It seems that YouTube is continuing to dilute what made the site great among so many users on the internet. In the early days of YouTube, categories used to mean something, now they are largely just a legacy feature which they haven’t removed for some reason. It’s probably because they are sentimental about it. This sentimentality does not seem to integrate well their incessant desire to obsess with putting ads into every part of the site.

Instead of putting ads everywhere, why don’t they try to focus on improving the categories.

However, it seems YouTube is destined to be flooded with tons of ads after spending years letting people upload for free and without fees on the site.

The DreamGaze Glasses Review: Protecting your Eyes from the Blue Light images.

 The DreamGaze Glasses are among one of the most useful things that I have purchased on Amazon site. 

The glasses which have a tinted color on the lenses are very useful at blocking out blue light on multiple types of electronics such as cell phones, tablets and computers.

I use my computer heavily and I used many brands, but they were often insufficient to protect my eyes from the blue light. I would often be exhausted and tired after using some glasses. This did not occur when I was using the DreamGaze glasses. They are lightweight and easy to use. Unlike some I got from Walmart which were breaking after using them for a bit, the DreamGaze glasses are very durable.

The glasses are not that expensive. The Gaming version of the DreamGaze glasses were only $12.99 on the site. There are also other version such as “Clear” and “Night Vision”.

Considering the price of these glasses. I think they are worth the money. The Gaming glasses are considered “Amazon Choice” which means they are highly rated by the company and ready to ship quickly to your house.

I recommend buying the DreamGaze Glasses if you use your computer alot in the evening or in the morning hours.

Why YouTube is past its prime

The video sharing site YouTube is way past its prime now. There are simply too many ads on there, too many fake users, too much clickbait.

The site could have been greatly improved by now but instead its all about maintaining the advertising revenue. The charm what made the site unique has been replaced with just dumping videos to get ad dollars and turning it into a more chaotic version of linear television. The quality videos or the passion behind it is getting worse and the interface experience is worse now.

YouTube has actually made the desktop version of the site worse than its mobile experience. While I understand there has been shift away from desktop viewing, sometimes I want to watch my laptop. Instead of having the same settings across devices, they have actually removed many features on the desktop version of the app. The biggest change is that they removed much of the ability to customize your playback settings on there. It is quite bare bones now.

YouTube needed competition in its early days.

Google has basically ruined the website. Just because a site gets billions of users doesn’t make it great. Sometimes the smallest website has the biggest impact on the culture in ways that are not yet seen.

YouTube used to have a motto: “Broadcast Yourself”. Now it is just the logo, it is hardly “You” anymore in the “Tube”.
