@TeamYouTube Have you done an update to your software recently? No matter what I'm using when on @YouTube Trying to sort searches by upload date or trying to refine the search to only show videos uploaded from a certain time. Each time it doesn't effect the search at all.
We're aware the search/sorting functions aren't working as expected – this is temporary and part of our efforts to better respond, review and remove graphic, violative content from YouTube. Thanks for your patience while we work through this.
