I’m glad YouTube didn’t develop a lot. Right now it does the job, supports everything I want as a user and mostly stays out of my way.

Sites that constantly evolve and try to reinvent themselves annoy me way more.

They still adjust the algorithm all the time and that tends to piss off a lot of people, too.

That alone would probably be okay if they weren't so quick to bend to pressure from a handful of squeaky wheels who happen to think of themselves as competitors to YouTube. ;- )
