Anyone else noticing major problems with Youtube lately?  Videos not playing and such?

Anyone know of another service similar to it?

At most, I think only 5% of the adult population would need to stop cooperating to have real change.

Vimeo is good, though Youtube is far and away the best.

Youtube would be mediocre if I could turn off comments.  It has far too much censorship going on, & it's page design is pretty dated & jumbled.  The only thing that save Youtube are the ocassional interesting channels, but that's mainly due to a few individuals who don't put out constant crap.

If you use Firefox, you could get this extension called Stylish or Greasemonkey.  You can then go to each respective addon site afterwords to get code which allows you to get rid of the comments section on Youtube:

www.userstyles.org

www.userscripts.org

And yes I would recommend Vimeo or Revver as alternatives.
