YouTube, you're pathetic. You're adding features that were already features in the cracked versions of your service. 256kbps isn't high quality for 2025 so that is a pointless plug, but good to know from a creator's perspective.. And I can get all the best formats by downloading your creators' videos.

Fourteen years ago YouTube on my Samsung S2 had picture-in-picture for a month. Then it disappeared. Then it popped up as a part of YouTube Premium. Fair enough.

A service provider whose official app clearly holds back on features just to monetise them later is a PoS provider, and a service whose experience is worse than the pirated experience is a fucked up service

Focus on making better suggestions and music discovery, and stop shoving all that random trash into the main page. Goddamn its like a cesspool in there with all that shit nobody asked for or want.

Also, what the other commenter said about you being pos for holding back basic features just to squeeze some more dollars by manipulation
