Forum Overview :: Lively: Google Creates Something Terrible :: Thanks, I was wondering where the annotation toggle had gone

[quote name="Mysterio"]I (used to) press that button on every video, as a preemptive defense against pointless interruptions. I thought they'd just removed it - maybe because it was somehow interfering with somebody's advertising revenue. But no, they're only adding more clicks for the sake of it. Idly checking for replies to my comments has also steadily gotten harder. I use the same browser for both YouTube and Gmail, and I don't want my real e-mail address involved in my YouTube commenting, so I have to switch all the time. Every few years they add a few more steps to this process. Right now, going from www.YouTube.com to the page where comment replies show up takes me TWELVE clicks. And one password entry. It's pathetic.[/quote]
