Thing is:

EVERY YouTube channel I now visit features no comments.

Is that the case now for you, too..?

I mean if you have a registered YouTube account, etc.

...?

I have noticed that websites that lean left do not have comments more and more. I find the comments to either be more entertaining than the article or in rare cases of a thought provoking article to add further insight, which of course is why comments are banned as they might cause somebody to question a narrative. The disconnect I see is on many topics, when the powers that be forget to disable the comments, most times the overwhelming majority seems to disagree with the authors absurd propaganda premise and not with the over the top absurd vitriol and adhominims that are the centerpiece of leftist debate tactics, but with rational debate and humor, that is until the website sees the error of allowing comments and memory holes them. The overwhelming numbers I frequently see for things like this points out a blatant disconnect. It makes it appear that most of the country is on the more libertarian or conservative philosophy by very large numbers, yet 50% + a few votes seem to install liberals. So either a disproportional amount of conservatives read and try to stay informed on topics (very plausable, by watching man on the street interviews alone), or there be fraud in them thar hills (extremely likely)

The YouTube app on my iPad recently changed to not supporting comments.

It doesn’t show any anymore.

I never commented, but always read comments.
