So, I switched my account to be linked to a google+ page a few days ago. After youtube bothering me likely more than 50 times I just finally said fuck it and did it. In light of the new comments needing a google+ account I figured I'd make this thread.
This system is the most clusterfucky, confusing, pointlessly convoluted piece of shit that's ever come out of either Google or old youtube. I can go into details if you want, but the system is a Frankensteined together mess of forcing you to use google+ and keeping your youtube channel how it is. It also decided to delete my youtube avatar because "fuck you" I believe was the official reasoning.
It also then disables your youtube inbox, and now all messages are delivered via google+.... which has no inbox at all. It's just a stream of fucking bullshit. I can't imagine what would happen if you were a youtuber with hundreds of comments. That box would flood at a rate no one could possibly keep up with.
Long story short: if you're still fighting the good fight and not switching to Google+, hold out as long as you can (if you still can?)! In general, I want to know what people think about this new system. My personal thoughts are likely obvious in my writing, so I open it up to you guys.
