Youtube, in their effort to make the platform worse each day, has decided to axe the captions feature which helped deaf and no speakers of a language enjoy videos. Awesome stuff as always

Because people are saying this is misleading, they are removing community captions only But youtube is also pushing a third party caption subscription so... yeah, don't get too attached to them in general imho.https://thenextweb.com/insights/2020/07/31/youtube-commuity-contributions-discontinued/ …

Hold on, a caption subscription? As in “you have to pay for captions”?

From what I've seen: they charge you a fee for every minute, so if you were to upload a 40 minute-long video and you have a diverse European audience, that while continent of subtitles could cost over a thousand dollars.

there is a reason for this, and TBH it falls mostly on creators for not policing their own content, but a large amount of people we're abusing captions to make them say all kinds of crazy things on big youtubers channels.
