I think that the Like counter is not reporting correctly because on other channels I noticed something like 20K Likes even though the video only had 4000 views and was just released
Yes, that makes no sense. For example, while I'm viewing this, there are 529 "Likes" (including mine), no "Dislikes", and 4,300 views. OK, that's close to 10%, but if I care to view a video I always "Like" because it takes a literal moment to say I appreciate someone making something I appreciate. Can't understand why anyone would not.
Had a bug lately where I watch a few videos in a row and all have the same lick count. Restart phone app and it shows correctly. It was weird being clicking 899 to 900 for four videos.
Thanks for talking about what YT does. I noticed it to except what I would write was completely gone within seconds. Friends I talk to about it have no interest.
They already do! And, I think YT user's whose views who are not aligned with those of YT outnumber those who are! I think popular new social media sites have siphoned off huge numbers of younger YT users and left the oldsters behind.
@@Bob_Adkins Yeah, lol at the old folk who think TH-cam and FaceBook are still relevant. That's why YT added shorts, "c'mon kids we're as cool at TikTok now, so please come back!"
@@j.f.christ8421 I don't think old folks worry about relevance of YT, I think they use it for learning and entertainment, and there's plenty of it for everyone.
@@Bob_Adkins The old folk at YT certainly worry about the kids all heading off to TikTok & whatever. As an old folk I loathe TikTok, the kids can have it.
That only works if you are logged in. Still, I think youtube does not want to reinforce the views of those it deems undesireable, so it will not show some comments to anyone. Yeah, people are becoming more and more fragile because of the over-shielding of people, and it conveniently benefits, well, we know who it benefits.
Yeah, yt's comment section has been pretty weird lately, to say the least. I only access with my smartphone, the issues are different... But they're there as well. Anyway, stay safe there with your family, John! 🖖😊 And happy holidays!
10:51 Hugh Laurie did an impeccable job with his American accent, I have yet to find a flaw in it. If you want to see him play the exact opposite, a blithering idiot with a British accent, check out the show Black Adder.
As for this hidden comments, I've been noticing comments and it'll say there is a reply but when I click it there is no reply. Any idea on that? PS I think this channel is great.
Freedom of speech and democracy has been redefined in the past decade or two and though the words are still the same the meaning is more or less the opposite nowadays.
I always leave positive comments and engage the content of the video... sometimes the video is a funny video and I sometimes play along with the gag... but a little more than a month or two ago, I got a a nasty message from TH-cam that blocked my access to my account informing me that one or more of my comments MIGHT HAVE been in violation of policy perhaps it was racists, spamming, or misinformation, that sort of thing... and without providing me any evidence or letting me know which one or ones were offensive ones, I don't know if it was it recent comment or 10 years ago. I find this deeply offensive as I know that I have done none of those horrible things TH-cam was accusing me of doing. The only recourse available to me was to contest this claim, some text (small-ish font) "if in error click this" so I did that... to this day still no response from TH-cam, but that didn't clear the message, regardless that I contested the claim, I was forced to click a BIG blue button "GOT IT" I felt like this was almost admitting that I did something wrong, again, to this day I don't know what it was, or what it thought it was, or was this a bug in their "algorithm".

It seemed like every 5 minutes or less during the video play, plus 2 roll before you watch, and one or two more rolls after you watch, So a 30 minute video and I'm watching 8 ads... as a result, I only watch a couple of videos a day... I cut down my TH-cam time from a few hours a day, to perhaps on average 30 minutes a day... (Way to go TH-cam) and I've also stopped watching Cable, movies, and other video content, I found I can mostly live without it... soon might cancel my TV Cable and just have Internet... I don't need any of this in my life and timewasting habits mean that I can accomplish more with my time than having my brain in mindless idle mode. Thank you TH-cam for waking me up... and becoming less addicted to your "product"
I am going to post another comment here to answer your concern about certain browser extensions you've mentioned. Let's see if that second comment gets 'cancelled' by TH-cam. 🙂
I was going to ask you where you got the scale but then I knew I have the ability to search for myself. I found one that looked the same as yours then on this video I realized it was from the same website. Turns out I'm not as useless as people think.
i found a website that allows you to build all kinds of polar and rectangular plots, log, antilog, different scale markings...now, i need to dig it out...
As far as the censorship is concerned, I have noticed lately when browsing the comments that there is something going on with replies. I've noticed lately that when I click on the reply there is nothing there. I'm not sure what that means or what causes it but I know that there have been times when I've made a comment and then noticed someone else made a comment similar and I go back and delete my comment as I felt it wasn't necessary to repeat it. The comment section then reverts back to the original state. The empty reply though started me to wonder about cencorship.
yep...it looks like YT has "noticed" that some commenters, myself included, are prevented from replying to "certain" content, or on certain channels...there are a few controversial topics "in play", these days, and a huge bias in "western" media...fortunately, carpentry and audio, not so much...
The reply has been hidden and you need to hit the "sort by" button to see it. It probably had some tone or keywords that triggered the bot that automatically hides comments and replies. You can see a number of them right here in the comments to this video, actually.
@@IBuildItScrapBin TH-cam's been doing this for ages, it's nothing new. They're actually going back thru old videos and hiding comments there as well. It's just brain-dead bots, everything from the spammers, sex-bots and all-round a-holes that gets flagged is used to train them, and if your comment is similar to one of those billions of deleted crap, well, sucks to be you. But yeah, I've had plenty of "WTF?" moments with comments getting shadow-banned.. I've noticed they've taken a real dislike to that Chinese company starting with A we all like to buy crap off, thanks spammers. The real problem is they don't know about context, so a joke on one channel would be rude on another. I'm surprised they even bother with comments, many websites just switched them off (eg IMDB years ago) because it wasn't worth the hassle.
About a year ago, I commented on a friend's TH-cam video. During the outro, he made a funny gesture and comment, and I replied to that with an equally comical comment. My comment was hidden from him, and I had to submit my comment for review to possibly have TH-cam restore it. They didn't. It wasn't in any way negative. Upon review of my comment, TH-cam actually removed his video because the outro comment he made was apparently offensive. It wasn't. Obviously, I can't repeat either comment here. TH-cam will likely censor it if I do. They've gotten as bad as Facebook when it comes to censorship. The removal of the dislike counter was just the beginning.
On the subject of censorship, you can read about it from the horse's mouth itself if you look for "Learn about comments that aren’t showing or have been removed"
The House clip at the end, yesss!! 😂🤣🤣 Favorite show ever, I remember that episode too, and he was actually really nice to them for Christmas. Well maybe not the guy because it wasn't his kid lol. On a more positive note, hopefully to keep my comment up top 🤣, I think the CEOs of both YT and FB should be prosecuted for crimes against humanity for what they're doing through censorship 😜 Elon telling Disney to go F themselves a few days ago, twice, is the best thing that we've seen lately against their evil
@@IBuildItScrapBin I saw that 2 people replied to my comment, clicked on it and of course they weren't there 🤔 Can see yours though. Hopefully Elon will buy Google someday and we'll have free speech on YT again 😁
I think the road we are on is already cut, paved and well traveled, and will only get wider and less recognized as going in the wrong direction. There is the bulk of humanity's apathy and desire to just get along and go along that'll push those of us that think differently down that same road whether we like it or not.
I don't think it's censoring. More like optimization. It was like this for a loooong time now. Static pages are being pre-rendered and cached for hours. You asking for sorted comments just pull the actual comments that have beend made out of live database.
We've known for quite some time now that most social sites, including YT, sensor creators and users. To argue that they are not doing that is like saying water is not wet.
It is censorship, this happens to premium members too. YT wants you to pay them AND to behave and watch what they want you to and say nice things about about it when you see how rubbish it is !
It's not optimisation, and it's not censorship. It's dumb bots trained on spam and the rambling of idiots getting trigger-happy and deleting anything that even comes close.
Here's the video I showed as an example with the hidden comments: th-cam.com/video/QiDJbO6IZcU/w-d-xo.html
I've noticed for example a video with 400K views only shows 30 likes. I find this rather unbelievable. At any rate, I spent time with you on Sunday.
10% or less is the average, based on my experience

That's most likely just a glitch. The hidden comment problem isn't.
I built your mini-sled, and it is the most useful shop-built tool in my arsenal.
Another nice video. Appreciate your calm and informative style. Keep up the good work.
On the mini sled, make the piece that locks the stop block round. That way, there's no fighting with it to get it lined up.
I waxed the "f-word" out of the slot and the mobile locking piece, and that helped a lot. I'm just testing the comment bots for coded profanity ;-).
Your positivity score is probably high enough to keep you safe, for now.
@@IBuildItScrapBin I'm not sure what you mean.
Thanks for talking about what YT does. I noticed it to except what I would write was completely gone within seconds. Friends I talk to about it have no interest.
TH-cam has certainly seen a lot of changes and it never seems to end every year brings something new, some good and some bad.
Thanks for sharing.

Why do I listen to the voice just for the end? But I like the videos every Sunday. Great job as always.
OMG!!!! I commented on BOTH videos on the same day!!! :)
This is a non-confrontational, positive, enthusiastic comment! (good stuff buddy)

Nice and simple but innovative just the same. Thanks John.
I never noticed that sort feature. Thanks.
Always helpful
oh thx. I noticed "invisible" comments but though it was kinda bug with suppressed comments but indeed one can see them by sorting them.
John, could you have recessed the table hinge into the surface of the fence doing away with the packing that it’s mounted on?
the packing is there for a reason, to make space for the clamp on the stop block.
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
The fence upgrade seems like it would be a good video. I’ll watch it🙂

why not adding a mechanical nonius to it to inprove the setting.
Could add a venier scale, but then that would also have to be calibrated. Better to just set pin locations at the set angles and skip the fine tuning.
