I have almost given up commenting at all. But I use YouTube and watch videos, read comments, and often want to say something. We should be able to. Hopefully someone knows the answer. I already saw a recommendation from someone on Reddit to use certain alternate characters but they didn’t specify what and they still aren’t working for me so I’m looking for a specific text format that remains undeleted.
I honestly don't get it.
I watch a ton of youtbe but I am there for the videos and that is it. I understand that you want something different but if you need to jump through this sort of bullshit to keep commenting, i just do not see what the attraction is.
I have never met anyone that wanted to comment in a place that “censored” them that wasn’t a troll or another form of shit stirring asshole.
I’m neither of those things and I’m not doing anything wrong. It speaks volumes that no one is able to focus on the actual question and instead chooses to obsess over what content is being removed.
Can you just imagine a hypothetical, which I assert is actually the case, where I’m trying to say something that you yourself would likely agree is completely reasonable; and yet it’s being deleted. Say that happens so frequently to the point that you have 2 options, to either stop commenting even though you want to be able to, or seek alternative characters that don’t get deleted.
In that situation, seeking alternative characters that don’t get removed is a reasonable solution.
If you don’t have an answer to the question, that’s fine. But I’m not interested in your assumptions about what you imagine I’m trying to comment. It’s all in your head.
The world would be a better place if you stopped commenting everywhere I think.
Well gee, thanks. I mean you literally know nothing about me except that I’m experiencing a weird technical issue on YouTube where a lot of comments I make get deleted when they’re completely harmless. I would never say something as mean as what you just said for example. I don’t assume bad things about other people. And I don’t say anything problematic. I have solid ethics and I don’t even say anything controversial on YouTube. I’m only saying this to defend myself against accusations and negative assumptions. No one believes me. What if no one believes you? I would believe you. One day, you might be in a similar situation. If I’m there, I’ll believe you. Sorry it’s been a long day.
You’re not experiencing a technical issue, you’ve been deemed not worth listening to by whoever has that power. It sucks, but that’s the price of being an asshole - and I say this as a fellow asshole.

You are looking for suggestions on how to say things while bypassing filters, but not telling us what things are are trying to say. Does that seem logical?

It seems completely logical to me. I’m looking for a solution to the issue. Trying to ascertain the exact content being removed is irrelevant to solving the issue.

What problem is it having?

Or like
“Does anyone know how to silently pick deadbolts?”
“Uh, why do you need to do that? Is it your house?”
“Look, I just need to know how to do it.”
amio@kbin.social 6 months ago
I can't believe you would ask them about their car like that, truly way over the line and you must be a terrible person, just because it's absolutely essential information gives you no right to go prying in their business like this, etc etc etc
(as much as I hate "/s"... /s.)

This is a false equivalency. I’ll try to spell it out clearly.
I’m looking for a character format (a type of alternative text characters) that doesn’t get removed.
It’s not necessary to know what content is being removed in order to suggest a character format that doesn’t get removed.
So I don’t know why you’re so focused on trying to determine what the content is when it actually is irrelevant to the question I’m asking.

I said what the problem is. Comments are getting deleted. And I’m specifically asking if anyone knows a character format that doesn’t get removed. You don’t need to know what content is being removed in order to suggest a character format. I don’t know why you’re not understanding this.
