I fought the YouTube

Ha! :P

YouTube won’t play in the background on my iPad anymore.

Now they’re posting warnings on any content they don’t condone.

Simply create a post or thread and play it in the preview window, and presto, no stupid warning and it keeps playing in the background. Now I can switch windows or browsers, and it keeps on keeping on.

There’s a couple samples from today.

LOL, that's clever! Why would they condone your content?

The two samples were likely unauthorized copies and were removed. Seems like a scene out of Fahrenheit 451. :x

Both videos deleted, so tried archive.org aka way back machine.

No go for both and http://youtu.be/upe2ImCeEHI, which wasn’t a copy.

I read some YouTube videos are automatically uploaded to bitchute, but think the creator must set that up.

Sounds like more of an iPad issue, not YouTube. I haven't noticed this behavior on Windows or Android.

Youtube only plays in the background now if you have a subscription to Youtube Premium.

I dropped my premium payment when they started flagging videos they don’t agree with. Preview & embedded videos would still do it, but not anymore.

Back to listening to videos on my iPhone, while surfing on me iPad. :ugeek:

Two devices, but not 2 devices. 🤫 gbng
