Youtube Autoplay Thoughts

If you don't know what I'm talking about is in the photo.

My opinion:

 

For my personal use it's fine but it's really annoying at school because of ignorance and apathy. Teachers will click the YT link from their presentation, watch the video in the stock player size non fullscreen with the sound either peaking or too quiet, minimize the browser window, go back to the presentation and then be seriously confused when another unrelated video starts playing.

I turned it off.

It's pointless.

Unless it's the autoplay in the Playlist

We are talking about.

In that case I leave it on, but the one that auto plays random shit after I finish watching one video... Yeah that's off.

If you don't like it. Turn it off.

I know about that.

I only wish they had made it off by default so the situation @Tedster described wouldn't keep happening. Other than that, I honestly don't mind it.

True but some times after using it ill forget to turn it off. So if it weren't for turnips i would be in the middle.

YouTube's AutoPlay feature is a good concept for certain types of content. An example would be music. It serves its purpose well here, by automatically playing related videos. There can be a few hitches, however, and they can go from bad to worse depending on the scale. An example would be that I left AutoPlay on during a game of League of Legends, where I was listening to the Rocky Soundtrack. First Burning Heart, then Eye of the Tiger, then it played another Survivor song, then it played one of their entire albums. So I went from a nice mix, to a single album. Then from there, it kept trying to AutoPlay entire albums. (Skipped to next 15 times, and they were all just albums.) 

 

The concept is good, and it can work well in some scenarios. However, I feel like it's best kept as something you can turn on, than something you can turn off.

Its terrible. Doesn't help it gets magically re-enabled on its own.
