This way they still have the true original footage of whatever they filmed + the date stamp on it depending on what they filmed on. The personal who stole the video will never ever have the true, original footage nor know the camera nor device the creator filmed it on. All they'll they know is the upload date & unless creator specifies the date the video was filmed, it's still not the stealer's original footage in the first place. But this is Only if that person takes the video w/o giving proper credit to its original creator in the first place.

    We can protest the removal of upload dates by adding it to the thumbnail and description manually, but I hope they don't actually roll with this awful "feature".

      None of what you've pointed out will happen as they are beyond the scope of the proposed changes by UA-cam.
      IMO, hiding view counts benefits small creators as it gives them a chance to compete against bigger, older ones with millions of views. As much as we'd hate to admit, human nature compels us to believe that more views = more trustworthy and useful.
      So, it will be a boon for the small fry for a while until further changes are made.
      As for removing upload dates, that seems utterly unnecessary and prone to lead to confusion. I don't see the justification behind it.

    Absolutely no one asked for any of these crap changes, these features are what made UA-cam great. The upload date is vitally important for the reasons in this video, the context of commentary videos about recent events or trends or data on a whole range of topics absolutely depends on that upload date.

      The subscriber count thing I think was because it was a bandwidth nightmare to update it constantly. I think I remember Hypixel said that people made so many API calls to query Skyblock information they were using up gigabytes per second so they had to rate limit it. The realtime subscriber count was likely to save on resources. Either that or because they didn't want people to make those "live subscriber count" streams anymore

    As you said. The date IS important! Especially to know the context of the videos, such as if they are just April Fools videos.
    This is APALLING that UA-cam plans on removing BASIC features! I am fed up with not seeing the dislikes already, but THIS is taking things TOO FAR! I DON'T want UA-cam to be like Crunchyroll (Crunchyroll is infamous for removing basic features, especially the comments section).

      hosting videos is expensive as hell unfortunately. kinda hope someone with some guts will find a way to stream videos in a way that may be less convenient to the user than it is to watch videos on youtube, but allows them to run the site without immediately going bankrupt. if everything else goes well, like keeping likes and dislikes, getting rid of intrusive ads, age-gating comment sections WITHOUT completely removing comments for adult users, and getting rid of other bullshit youtube is notorious for, then hopefully they'd gain enough of an audience with enough monetary support that they can get undo whatever video streaming compromises they made in the beginning.
      though honestly, maybe thats just a pipe dream. i dont know how much of youtube can be meaningfully optimized in the sense of actually running it, since apparently youtube doesnt actually make a profit for google. if it were possible to make youtube profitable, why wouldn't they have done it already?

    Yo, I think another thing worth looking into is something I noticed for literally like an hour before it went back to normal. UA-cam is also experimenting with making thumbnails smaller and to the left of the video title. Maybe to see what happens when users can't entirely see what's in a thumbnail and have to pick a video based on the name? At first I thought my app was bugging out, but I had closed the app, closed it from settings, and restarted my phone. It was legitimately the format of the app for like an hour or two within the last week.

    I just noticed in the last few days that shorts no longer have a way to comment on them. Literally making every aspect of their site worse for no benefit.
    Also, some videos have been stuttering every few seconds, and sometimes the play button doesn't work after pausing. I don't know if it's an issue with the app or what, but it's absolutely unacceptable.
    I guess they decided that since they're finally turning a profit, now's the perfect time to fuck everything up instead of leaving it alone.

That is such an absurd, and blatantly dumb idea that would heavily damage UA-cam's credibility for each video.
    You'd never know what content is legit and what content is stolen or re-uploaded, which happens all the time to big-time creators.

    Removing the view count is not gonna help. Small creators will never know if there getting any views and will be getting there hopes up constantly (as a small creator).
    Removing the date is 10x worse. It will be impossible to understand and content without knowing the date.
    I posted a video November 1st to make better context of a video I made, but there would be no point if we remove the date. This can also lead to a lot more scams since no one can tell who watches it, who doesn’t like it (if it’s real or not) and when this was made.

    I genuinely don't understand why big corps like to make things worse and not cater to what the market demands... Like if this is an act to help smaller creators... maybe implement a better way than remove vital information???

    Wonder how old UA-cam would survive in this new time

      The old UA-cam is practically dead since barely it's being recommended, this is a new UA-cam now

      Old UA-cam? What do you mean? Genuine question.

      Wouldn't survive at all. It was nigh uncensored compared to today, which would make it extremely unattractive for investors.

    Google kept ruining their browser, so they also had to ruin UA-cam. 😭

    Many vids with few views have a trash production quality and/or content, its a quick quality indicator

    Next time they're gonna remove the feedback button so that you can't suggest that they revert any feature.

      It already basically does nothing, but if they get rid of it then how else can I scream at them to be better?

    @1:45 i completely agree with this but in the description it should tell you the views if you scroll to the bottom

      No I think it's really illogical
      I don't think hiding the views and the dates is the right option to help small channels.
