I was trying to give pointers to people in comments but it seems whenever I wrote uBlock Origin, “u B lock”, SponsorBlock or “S p onSor Block” (without quotes) the comment would vanish within first minute.
Is this happening only to me/on this one specific video (in Czech, don’t want to link because I don’t agree with the points they said, though it was video about the adblock blocking of YT)?
Probably. I mean I would block it if I were them lol
They definitely block an absolute fuck ton of references. I had comments removed for simply saying the word Github.
I’ve had the word aliexpress get me a warning for “spam & scams”, and another very short comment got me a temporary ban. I have no idea why, maybe because it looked like fake engagement? I mentioned the phrase “youtube channel”. So strange.
I feel like I shouldn’t keep putting my energy onto that platform and am looking for a good peertube instance to start uploading to.
If you’re not aware YouTube has heavy comment filters which use NLP in a heavy handed way to remove “negative” comments.
YouTube comments are genuinely worth nothing anymore because they’re cherry picked by software
I don’t comment on yt at all so I haven’t tried but that’s hilarious and frustrating. Every browser I run into I install ublock. Sometimes I install it on my friends’ browsers if they let me.
Would be surprised if they are not blocking those terms. Surprised pro-ad blocking videos stay up long enough to get any comments.
