See what I mean? I provide examples and no one cares. Just more downvotes. Just really toxic behaviour here. You are probably the ones who deserve to have your comments deleted more than me.
Trust me, you are rare as a more reasonable person on this platform by the fact that what you're saying actually makes sense and is somewhat kind natured. So I appreciate that at least.
Also, everyone knows people on Reddit (and the culture here is basically the same as Reddit) are really rude and unempathetic to anyone asking for help. So this isn't limited to this thread at all.
I provided examples already, and I also said that I'm not trying to say anything bad in any way. But people don't believe me, and demand to know more, and won't accept the answers I give. They assume the worst of me and make a lot of false accusations.
On top of that, people are rude and insult me for no reason.
Everything I say gets downvoted no matter how reasonable it is.
Yes, this is unempathetic. I know empathetic people. This is not that.
Upvoted for acknowledging the madness of YouTube. It's a broken platform and this crazy comment deletion that doesn't even work properly and deletes completely normal comments is the worst thing they've done ever since its inception, tbh.
THANK YOU! Someone who has experienced the same thing. That's exactly what I mean. I can't even mention companies like Amazon in any context, even when it's not negative at all.
And yes, separating my comments and rewording them for absolutely no reason when they still say the same thing, can sometimes work, and other times doesn't. It's really annoying.
And of course you get downvoted even when you provide reasonable examples. I already gave them examples but they demanded to know more and continue to make various assumptions about me.
People here are so closed-minded honestly, that they can't possibly believe that there are major flaws with YouTube's comment deletion algorithm, and they can impact some people more than others for no reason. Do they have so much faith in these companies and automated systems that they can't possibly fathom they might not work properly or fairly 100% of the time? Or can people not even accept that other people's experiences with the same things might be different than theirs? It reminds me of people who refuse to believe other intelligent life could exist somewhere in the universe. They can't even accept it as a hypothetical.
And now go on, downvote me. It's so mindless.
Sorry for the rant. These people frustrate me.
You can help, if you're able to. Not wanting to help with this is something different.
I explained that my comments are being deleted. No one needs to know what every single comment I posted is, in order to suggest a text character that works. I already gave some examples, but people are demanding more. No matter what I say, they refuse to help.
Btw it does happen to a lot of people, and I've seen lots of people complaining of it in comments sections as well as on Reddit.
It's not one comment like I said. It's at least 50% of the comments I make, completely harmless.
Sometimes I might say things like "This is really messed up" and it gets deleted. Or often it's not even that, like just random sentences. I literally can't think of examples because it happens so often. As many other people can attest to, their account often seems to be unable to comment completely innocuous things while other accounts are able to. If you have supreme faith in AI and YouTube auto-moderation, then you might say "Whatever is happening, you deserve it." Which seems to be the prevailing view here, sadly.
But I just ask you to think a bit more compassionately and not assume the worst of people. There are many cases of similar situations that prove that there are completely innocent people having their comments removed for no reason. I'm thinking I might have to find one and post it here so people believe me.
Look I appreciate if you were trying to help. But what you were saying honestly didn't make sense.
I really don't think I was being hostile. I tried to explain my position clearly, that for multiple reasons I'm unable to state exact comments that have been removed, though I gave you general examples. You seemed to ignore this multiple times and at that point I didn't know how else to explain it.
And you tried to argue that you weren't able to provide a character format without knowing the exact content, inaccurately comparing it to someone not telling you what problem they were having with their car, even though I have explained the problem and there's nothing preventing anyone from helping with it in this case.
All it requires is the knowledge and willingness to suggest a text character that doesn't get removed.
This is really hard to understand for me, if someone else asked for help with this, I would just help if I could. I wouldn't try to determine what the person is commenting.
So are you still saying you can't physically help with what I'm asking? Or do you just not want to help unless I tell you the content, because you can't trust that what I'm commenting is completely innocuous and getting deleted for no reason? Do we not trust each other at our word anymore in this society?
So you're incapable of imagining a hypothetical where even you agree that what I'm trying to say is completely innocuous?
Or do you actually think that there's no situation when an innocuous comment gets deleted (even though there are countless examples online of people in the same situation as me)?
Honestly worrying if people have this much faith in auto-moderation systems.
