It all started back in November of 2013 - I finally received a new cellphone, a Nokia Lumina 520, and along with it, I finally got my own میل ای account and password.
While it was nice having those, I didn't really use them, not even to make a Facebook account. However, in Christmas of that year, while watching some YouTube videos, it suddenly dawned on me: I could use the میل ای and ورڈ پاس to create my own Google account and تبصرہ on YouTube videos. I liked reading other people's تبصرے (When they were not rude.) and I wanted to do it, myself.
After creating my Google account, I immediately started commenting on YouTube ویڈیوز (Mostly AMV's and سب, سب سے اوپر 10 lists, in random.), however, because I was inexperienced, my تبصرے were of very piss-poor quality. Heck, I didn't even know how to reply to other comments.
A تبصرہ I remember very well, was the تبصرہ I made on the: "Mayuri Kurotsuchi vs Szayelaporro Granz Full Fight English Dub" video, where, at the end of the video, Mayuri apparently raped her unconscious daughter to wake her up. I was surprised, to say the least, so I had to comment.
A few days later, while at my father's house, I received a notification on my cellphone, and it was a reply to my comment. It was the very first reply I ever got to a comment.

Another thing I highly remember was when I first received my very first notification. I was sitting at my laptop, when suddenly, that گھنٹی, بیل thing went black and had the number 1 in a red box, on the top-right of its icon. I remember being very curious about it, and when I opened it, it turns out someone gave a +1 to a تبصرہ I made about the song "Crash" سے طرف کی Decyfer Down; about how it was a perfect workout song. I was surprised to see someone appreciating my opinion.

After that, I started commenting on videos, receiving notifications about the جوابات and +1's I got, etc.

Another thing I highly remember was in August of 2014, when I شدہ تبصرہ on how shocked I was, when the 2003 TMNT series wasn't included on the "Top 10 Superhero animated series", and instead the '87 TMNT was on the list. Because I شدہ تبصرہ early, my تبصرہ received over 20 likes, and it was my very first تبصرہ to get that many.

When my 8th grade started and became obsessed with Disney's Frozen, I made dozens of تبصرے about the movie, even meeting my best friend Dan, in the YoutTube تبصرہ section, trying to defend Elsa against a critique. Heck, back in my 8th grade, I mostly communicated with Dan, and another friend I made online before him who was also a Frozen fan, called Paty Valentine, through YouTube comments.

During December of 2014 and January of 2015, I made lots of تبصرے that got multiple likes.
I especially loved it when I was notified that my تبصرہ got a +1.

However, all of that changed in August of 2015, when Google+ and YouTube separated.

Whenever, I left a تبصرہ on a YouTube video, I could go to my Google+ page and see all of them, which allowed me to keep track of, read, take a look at who liked them, read the replies, watch the videos, etc.
Back then, I didn't know about the separation of Google+ and YouTube - so, when I looked at my Google+ profile, I didn't see the latest تبصرے I made. I was honestly confused. I thought I accidentally did something that prevented the دکھانا of later comments.
When I found out that they separated, I was incredibly furious. So furious, in fact, that I wanted to مککا, عجیب الخلقت something.
I told Dan about this, and he was also very angry.
The reason why this separation angered me so much is because it feels pointless. They worked perfectly together. I could look at my تبصرے and keep track of them, receive notifications about likes I've got, and many more!

For instance, when I watch ویڈیوز on YouTube یا clips from shows/movies, I sometimes bump into someone who shares their honest opinion, that I can agree with. I would love to become دوستوں with them - but in order to make sure they're truly trustworthy, I have to look at all of they're تبصرہ to make sure I didn't befriend a troll, یا a liar. That's how I became دوستوں with not only Dan, but with many others as well.
Plus, it's fun to read what they think about the video یا what's going on, in it.
With YouTube and Google+ separating, however, I can no longer do this.

I'm not trying to invade their privacy, I just want to make sure they can be trusted, یا not; to simply read their opinions. It's no different from reading other people's articles.

Back in August of 2015, I met a guy on YouTube, called MegaFriendlyCreeper, who also loved Elsa from Frozen, and when I asked him about why he loves her so much, he کہا he will tell me in time.
To make sure he was telling the truth, I looked at his YouTube comments, and he turned out to not only be a big پرستار of the movie, but is also a very intelligent and helpful person.
I befriended him, and whenever I had a doubt of some kind, یا just something wrong with me, I could always ask him for advice.
With the separation, however, not only I can no longer see his latest comments, but there's also something that prevented the دکھانا their older تبصرے - but I'll talk about this, later.

And don't think that YouTube is innocent either.
Nowadays, whenever I want to read their تبصرے , I have to scroll deep in the تبصرہ section in order to find them; which is not only very tedious and time consuming, but is also very boring!
Whenever I leave a comment, I'm not sure that it will remain where it is, یا it will be cast down into the "Read More" تبصرہ section, where it will be lost forever.
The only way to prevent this from happening is to highlight my comment, so it won't disappear. This is annoying to me, because I doubt that I have to do something like that for my تبصرہ to stay and have people read it.

One thing I also absolutely hate is the new Google+ theme/font/look, however آپ want to call it.
The گزشتہ look was great. It had two posts on both sides, so it was organized; it had Hangouts, which allowed me to talk to my friends, much like how Facebook has Messenger; it even had a function, where, if I go to my پروفائل page, I can choose the "mentions" option, and look at the conversations I had.
Conversely, the new look has three posts on three blocks, making it very crowded and unorganized. Not to mention, they got rid of the Hangouts function, which was one of the best things about it.
Whenever I was on Google+, I could talk to my friends, یا when they want to talk to me, یا reply back to me, it would inform me. But now - every time I want to use Hangouts, I have to go the Hangouts website, and use that.
Another thing I absolutely hate about the new look is the deletion of older YouTube comments. From now, not only are your latest YouTube تبصرے not show, but the older ones aren't shown either! Which, like I said, hurt a lot because now, I can't read their opinion anymore, keep track of what they say, یا even talk to them.
Speaking of which, my friend, MegaFriendlyCreeper, as well as other YouTube commenters, only left YouTube comments, which means, every time I go their Google+ پروفائل page, there's not one post. It's completely empty! I mean, how ridiculous is that!

The new look appeared on October of 2015, but because I hated it, I had to option of returning and using the گزشتہ one - but a few months ago, it کہا that I need to update it because the old look was outdated. I ignored it, of course, because the old look is far superior in just about every way - but one day, when I opened up Google+, it permanently changed to the awful new look.

And they can't leave the notifications well enough alone!
Recently they changed the look of the notifications. Now, every time I open it up, there's a blue bar that I have to wait for it to load up, and the new look of the notifications is boring.
Before that, whenever the گھنٹی, بیل had notifications for me, it would be colored black, and had the number of حالیہ notifications on the سب, سب سے اوپر right within a striking red box; and when I open it up, the notifications would دکھائیں the face/name of the person who replied/liked my comment/post. And even showed the numbers of likes it got. And when there are no notifications left, there was a گھنٹی, بیل who told me I read all of my notifications.
Now, I have to wait for the blue bar to load up, in a very tedious fashion, and the notifications are all slimmer, and whenever I want to look at older notifications, instead of دکھانا it to me in the notifications box, it brings me to the notifications page, instead!

Another problem is that every time, I want to تلاش for someone, I have to click on the تلاش bar, but every time I do, it instead brings me to some page with community recommendations, instead of letting me write the persons نام کا صارف into the تلاش bar.
It honestly feels like they want to become as tedious as possible to troll people who liked how it originally worked.

And, like I said, YouTube isn't any better either.
Not only does YouTube have the most uncaring attitude to YouTubers, but they will basically allow any random company, to copyright them of their videos, even though Fair Use exists. YouTube, however, laugh in the face of Fair Use, and will let anyone copyright any YouTuber's ویڈیوز for no reason, even though they have rights.

Another problem I have with YouTube, is that, in the past, I could go to other people's discussion page, and talk to them, that way. Now, the tabs are all missing.
I know this may sound like I'm some kind of a creep, but before we used Hangouts, the Discussion site was how me and my دوستوں (Mostly Dan.) talked.
Let me tell آپ a story:
Back in February of 2015, on a Saturday night, me and my parents were having an argument about my introversion. That I should stop talking to internet friends, and instead talk to the others around me; that I should have a hobby, not just be on the internet all of the time; that I should open up to people and share my feelings; that I should quit my addiction to my laptop so much, etc.
After my father left, I told my mother my secret and explained why I relate to Elsa, and being a پرستار of Frozen. She کہا that I should quit my affections for her, since it's not healthy.
It got to the point of me crying, and my mother sleeping over. While she was sleeping, I was writing my "Analysis of Let It Go, and Elsa's facial expressions during Let It Go" article.
After she went to sleep, I went to a تبصرہ that Dan گیا کیا پوسٹ on the official Let It Go موسیقی video, and after that, he told me that he left a message on my discussion page. After reading the message he left, I was again in tears, because of how honest he was with me.
Because he گیا کیا پوسٹ a message on my discussion page, I used his, and we were able to talk there.
I also used MegaFriendlyCreeper's discussion page, we also talked there.
That's why it bothers me so much, that the discussion sites have become unavailable - because while, yes, we can use Google+ posts and Hangouts to communicate, the discussion page was something I will never forget.
However, it's not completely unavailable. There are ways to access it, but much like with Hangouts, I don't think that using methods like these are, at all necessary.

And I know what آپ might be asking:
"But, Renegade! If آپ hate how both YouTube and Google+ work, why don't آپ use Facebook یا Twitter, instead?"
That's because most of my دوستوں use Google+, and most of the posts I see on Facebook are things that don't interest me in the slightest, while Google+ does. And YouTube is the Number 1 video streaming site in the world, and there are no other places I can go to watch what I want.
I absolutely hate that both of them separated, and the absurd changes they made, but I'm dependent on both of them.

I know it's very stupid what I'm about to say, and I'm very sorry for it, but I really wish that Google+ and YouTube would شامل میں forces, again, and go back to the way they were.

And I also know what most of آپ are saying:
"Well, you're just someone who doesn't like change! آپ think that, because they changed it, now it sucks!"
First of all, why is change inherently good, anyway? The assumption is that if you're changing something, you're attempting to make it better. However, as I have seen over the course of my experience on the internet, and in real life, things are changed all the time and sometimes for the worse. Sometimes, changes are nonsensical یا unnecessary. Sometimes, the changes in fact create مزید problems than they solve. Change CAN be good...assuming that something needed to be changed...! And in case of these two, they changes they made couldn't possibly be any worse.
And I KNOW what آپ guys are going to say:
"Well, آپ just don't like it because it's different?"
My problem is not that it's different, but that it sucked out the practicality and fun of how they originally worked. As I said, they worked perfectly, so why ruin it?

It really feels like, because they're separated, they want to change their look and functionality to that of the mobile apps, instead of being different.

In conclusion, Google+ and YouTube separating was an unnecessary decision, at best, and a horrible idea that is executed poorly, at worst.
The changes they make are beyond annoying and horrible, and in fact create مزید problems than they solve. And the sad things is, that I'm dependent on both of them, which feels like a major stomp on my crotch.

I'm sorry if I sounded pretentious or, for a lack of a batter term, nostalgic, in this مضمون - but all of the changes the both make is infuriating to me, as regular user of both sites, and I wanted to express that.

As always, Smell ya' Later!
