Google Plus Commenting on YouTube - ALL G+ COMMENTS POSTS HERE

[ChiakiXNanami]

so that was what was going on today when I was trying to comment on the new Grepy video. You would think with how many people hate G plus G would stop it or at least stop making it a thing with YT

Yep. It's an evil business practice.

I think that everyone who hates the change should use AdBlock. Together, we can hopefully put a big enough dent into Google's YouTube income to make them realize that they need to revert the change. Most people have no interest in G+, so there are enough of us to put a huge dent in the income. The only problem is that not enough YouTube creators and viewers view these forums, so we need to somehow make it more public for it to succeed.

Maybe we could make an official boycott thread here. Then all the YouTube creators who come here can make a video linking to the thread. There are also the Google support forums, but the thread would probably just be deleted.

I know one downside to my idea is that YouTube creators would not make even close to as much money, but there's no way to avoid that when making a dent in Google's income.

Eh... I do see the reply button. The whole layout right now just looks way more complicated than it needs to be. >_>

What on earth was wrong with receiving notifications in our inboxes?? Now we have to check our email and our phone? What the heck is our inbox for now?

I knew this was coming. It kind of looks stupid now that it's here, but that's not anything a little fixing can't.... Fix. I mean, c'mon. But for now, I'm going to enjoy the freaking out that'll inevitably go on across the web over the next 48 hours.​

We can in fact reply to comments. Since it just switched it will take a moment for it to show up. Just be patient.

Oooh okay........thanks.......I do not have that option yet. The only thing I can do is 'remove' a comment (on my own video.)
Or I can arrange it with 'newest comments' or 'top comments'.

Yeah same here but I just finished reading an article and it says the reply button is located below the comment. It will be there soon! If you haven't read it already here is the article.

The comment section is ugly, you'd think the engineers like moonwalking backwards in progress, Jesus.

Well this kind of sucks, honestly. I don't want to check my page for notifications. >_> I liked checking my inbox for comment notifications.
