@TeamYouTube responds later that they will reconsider:
> Really appreciate your response, and can see how sorting by upload date is helpful when tracking breaking news. We're sharing this feedback live with our product team
- ncr100 9mo agoKinda gross - how important YouTube is in the real world and - how disconnected the "Product Team" is, by inference from this reply.
- magicalhippo 9mo agoI feel product management from a lot of large companies is often very disconnected. A semi-random recent example from someone else, Samsung changed contacts list in recent update, so now recently added contacts is above favorite contacts, and it's done in such a way I now have to scroll to get to my favorites... like WTF. Samsung aren't unique though. Microsoft for example has spent the first few years if each release of their OS usable since Vista, with the exception of Windows 7.
- 7bit 9mo agoI'd don't think they are disconnected. That would just attribute carelessness where malice should be attributes I believe they are intentionally removing these features to push some metrics to increase their bonuses.
- ncr100 9mo agoLOL - great terrible example <3 "the market moves faster than the tech" and in this case the tech is not evolved (e.g. to protect the fact YOU want your favorites at the top) because the PMs may never prioritize it.

- slurpyb 9mo agoThe removal of sort by date makes any search result algorithmic and thus can be manipulated to match advertiser or paid boosting. No doubt the team doesn’t want this. It’s just enshittification in motion
