    the Music Key service released the previous year), premium original series, and films produced by YouTube personalities, as well as background playback of content on mobile devices.

  • [29] YouTube was not the first video-sharing site on the Internet; Vimeo was launched in November 2004, though that site remained a side project of its developers from CollegeHumor
    at the time and did not grow much, either.

  • “[171][172] Community On September 13, 2016, YouTube launched a public beta of Community, a social media-based feature that allows users to post text, images (including GIFs),

  • [166] Writing in the Newsday blog Silicon Island, Chase Melvin noted that “Google+ is nowhere near as popular a social media network like Facebook, but it’s essentially being
    forced upon millions of YouTube users who don’t want to lose their ability to comment on videos” and added that “Discussion forums across the Internet are already bursting with the outcry against the new comment system”.

  • Users wishing to post a video discussing, inspired by, or related to another user’s video can make a “video response”.

  • [130] In June 2014, YouTube began to deploy support for high frame rate videos up to 60 frames per second (as opposed to 30 before), becoming available for user uploads in
    October.

  • [85] In 2022, YouTube launched an experiment where the company would show users who watched longer videos on TVs a long chain of short unskippable adverts, intending to consolidate
    all ads into the beginning of a video.

  • [117] In 2018, YouTube added a feature called Premiere which displays a notification to the user mentioning when the video will be available for the first time, like for a
    live stream but with a prerecorded video.

  • YouTube announced that it would remove video responses for being an underused feature on August 27, 2013.

  • [33][34] The site grew rapidly; in July 2006, the company announced that more than 65,000 new videos were being uploaded every day and that the site was receiving 100 million
    video views per day.

  • [138][139][140] Citing the limited number of users who watched more than 90-degrees, it began supporting an alternative stereoscopic video format known as VR180 which it said
    was easier to produce,[141] which allows users to watch any video using virtual reality headsets.

  • [45][46][47] However, most of these views came from a relatively small number of videos; according to a software engineer at that time, 30% of videos accounted for 99% of
    views on the site.

  • [180] Later the same year, YouTube Feather was introduced as a lightweight alternative website for countries with limited internet speeds.

  • [145] In certain cases, YouTube allows the uploader to upgrade the quality of videos uploaded a long time ago in poor quality.

    of videos exceeding this length were unauthorized uploads of television shows and films.

  • [87] YouTube public dislike count removal (2021–present) After testing earlier in 2021, YouTube removed public display of dislike counts on videos in November 2021, claiming
    the reason for the removal was, based on its internal research, that users often used the dislike feature as a form of cyberbullying and brigading.

  • [160] Google subsequently implemented a comment system oriented on Google+ on November 6, 2013, that required all YouTube users to use a Google+ account to comment on videos.

  • [60] Through this period, YouTube tried several new ways to generate revenue beyond advertisements.

  • [174][non-primary source needed] After the feature has been officially released, the community post feature gets activated automatically for every channel that passes a specific
    threshold of subscriber counts or already has more subscribers.

  • [65] In 2014, YouTube announced a subscription service known as “Music Key,” which bundled ad-free streaming of music content on YouTube with the existing Google Play Music
    service.

  • [16] Hurley and Chen said that the original idea for YouTube was a video version of an online dating service, and had been influenced by the website Hot or Not.

  • YouTube released a mobile app known as YouTube Kids in 2015, designed to provide an experience optimized for children.

  • [178][179] For example, in October 2009, a comment search feature accessible under was implemented as part of this program.

  • [79][80] Following criticisms of its implementation of those systems, YouTube started treating all videos designated as “made for kids” as liable under COPPA on January 6,
    2020.

  • [11] Google’s ownership of YouTube expanded the site’s business model, expanding from generating revenue from advertisements alone, to offering paid content such as movies
    and exclusive content produced by YouTube.

  • “[89][90][91] Shortly after the announcement, software developer Dmitry Selivanov created Return YouTube Dislike, an open-source, third-party browser extension for Chrome
    and Firefox that allows users to see a video’s number of dislikes.

  • [176] Channels that the community tab becomes enabled for, get their channel discussions (previously known as channel comments) permanently erased, instead of co-existing
    or migrating.

  • [187] In February 2009, YouTube announced a test service, allowing some partners to offer video downloads for free or for a fee paid through Google Checkout.

    highlighted.

  • [151] In May 2013, creation of live streams was opened to verified users with at least 1,000 subscribers; in August of the same year the number was reduced to 100 subscribers,[152]
    and in December the limit was removed.

  • [84] In 2020, Roku removed the YouTube TV app from its streaming store after the two companies were unable to reach an agreement.

  • [59] YouTube officially launched the “polymer” redesign of its user interfaces based on Material Design language as its default, as well a redesigned logo that is built around
    the service’s play button emblem in August 2017.

  • [147] These tests had relied on technology from 3rd-party partners, but in September 2010, YouTube began testing its own live streaming infrastructure.

  • YouTube stated that this would enhance “motion-intensive” videos, such as video game footage.

  • YouTube introduced standardized widgets intended to replace annotations in a cross-platform manner, including “end screens” (a customizable array of thumbnails for specified
    videos displayed near the end of the video).

  • In the mobile apps, users choose between “Auto”, which adjusts resolution based on the internet connection, “High Picture Quality” which will prioritize playing high-quality

  • In 2006, Time praised Web 2.0 for enabling “community and collaboration on a scale never seen before”, and added that YouTube “harnesses the stupidity of crowds as well as
    its wisdom.

  • [188] In June 2012, Google sent cease and desist letters threatening legal action against several websites offering online download and conversion of YouTube videos.

  • [32] Despite eventually being taken down, these duplicate uploads of the skit helped popularize YouTube’s reach and led to the upload of more third-party content.

  • [121] In June 2007, YouTube added an option to watch videos in 3GP format on mobile phones.

  • [67][68][69] The company also attempted to create products appealing to specific viewers.
