I Love YTtalk
Okay so at least on my YouTube this a new thing which when enabled will take you to the next suggested video, its automatically turned on until you turn it off.
Is anyone else seeing this? & what do you think?
Personally I don't like it, I want to choose the video I want to watch next, although it could be useful for getting more views in some peoples cases... hm.
 
It seems like the kind of thing that's going to detract views that smaller channels receive by redirecting traffic to more popular content. It makes sense in terms of business, but it frustrates me that YouTube is making it harder and harder for small YouTubers.
 
It's not happened to me, but I personally am going to be against it unless it's able to detect if you're in the middle of writing a comment or otherwise interacting with the page...
I've had enough long comments deleted because I forgot I was on a playlist. -_-'
 
I don't personally like it as it reminds me of the playlist feature. I often like to comment on a video after watching, and as said earlier in this post, it can get aggravating to lose that nice golden comment you worked so hard to think up.
