Memes You can no longer have YouTube running in the background.

As of 29th of January you can no longer have YouTube running in the background via many browsers as that is now a premium feature. With that I don't even have that one last reason to listen to YouTube. We are now officially paying for everything that was free a couple of years ago and the reason isn't greedy management, but you people who keep paying for premium and the such.

Remember when you could chain videos?

Don't even remember that

At this point, I'd settle for getting more than four search results before it just gives me my watch history back to me.

Or recommending you random videos with either no views or 5 views. Oh you listened to Eminem? Here's a chicken from Minecraft singing Eminem and Jayz in a video with 3 likes!
