I enjoy watching YouTube videos but the algorithm is getting to the point where it's just horrible and then I get ads help with money but these hour long ads are insane. I feel like every update just makes it worse and I struggle to even clink links with YouTube when my friends send me shorts and it takes forever to load half the time. love it but also have an iffy relationship with it.

I'm having deja vu here. At this point I've been paying for youtube premium since it was an option. Other than making YouTube ad-free my most used feature is definitely the popout player and background play. But the control buttons have stopped working and I can't skip or play/pause without opening the app. UPDATE: Now I can't add anything to my play queue. I get an error when I try. This is another paid feature that is no longer working. Does anyone have a solution for this?

The app randomly restarts the first 5 seconds of videos. It also doesn't load videos fully, just black screen while the sound of said video plays in the background. This is honestly a joke for a company that brings in millions to billions of dollars a year. ALSO what's the point of having a "continue" option when it just restarts the video. I'm halfway through a 2-3 hour long video and now I've got to scour back through it to find where I paused it so I can actually continue the video.
