[UPDATE: Restored for some ppl] Youtube removes 'sort by view count/upload date'

[BladeVenom]

Worse, they removed sort by date. That's the filter I used the most.

Theres pretty much no way to browse tags anymore, and all the stuff I get reccomended is stuff I WATCHED

"we suggested this because you watched the same video"

hehe, ya, i have noticed this too.

Or worse, it might eat Sandy's pets!

If Microsoft would create a youtube clone they might steal the thunder from google,but they are even more anal on copyright so...

Some Chinese people need to make a Youtube like site targeted at North America (basically, in English). That way it would kill two birds with one stone. Something better than Youtube, and no more copyright restriction BS. Then again the US government would probably just extradite the owner. They seem to be a lot into that lately.

They've also censored their picture search. Google picture search used to be unfiltered, moderate, or strict filtering. Now it seems to be just moderate or strict.

Using the term "porn," 9 out of the first 10 results weren't porn. Google now can barely find porn on the internet.

The US goverment would just block the IP's, whether service providers agree or not.

Fuck heads.

After you search, click filters, then click sort by [view count, upload date, etc.]

Google killed youtube long ago, now they're just striping the corpse.

The feature has been restored, for now.

Otherwise, just add this string to any search and save to favorites for future reference:

&search_sort=video_date_uploaded

edit: Just checked again, theyve limited results to 13 pages. The old limit was 50. Just keep updating the page number manually.

WHAT A HASSLE!

I'm just waiting for the day Google won't let you search, and it will just present results for things it thinks you want without you needing to input anything.
They are half way there, but currently you still need to type in some stuff before it works its magic to give pages of results for completely unrelated things.

Google spends too much time trying to be clever, to the point it's getting more and more difficult to use their "services".
E.g. search for something Korean on Youtube in hangul (rathr than the latin alphabet), and it gives me results for the english equivalent, which means a ridiculous number of results of things that aren't remotely what I searched for.
I searched in hangul specifically so those things DON'T appear, yet it transliterates it into English anyway to spam up my results with crap.

I noticed this as well a few days ago. Fucking ridiculous.

Good catch, thanks. I'll take this as a concession from Google they're destroying youtube and have decided to reverse course in an attempt to slow their pace of destruction.

I use Autopagerize, which loads the next page continuously when scrolling to the end of each. Seems to still work endlessly on youtube results. (works great on other sites, ie amazon, as well.)

 

[Miramonti]

&search_sort=video_date_uploaded
&search_sort=video_view_count
&search_sort=video_avg_rating

Still not there for me.

Thanks for the tip.
