So the working theory is that because @TeamYouTube shut down @GooglePlus its broken YouTube!
Since then views have been down 40%!
Sub growth has been down!
In 2014 @Google thought it was a great idea to FORCE all YouTube accounts to have a Google+ & integrate the two.
I can see it, the bar on the left side on the desktop shows people live who haven't been live in a day or so still, also have been having notifications show up a day later, but when isn't youtube broke?
