  • Youtube search results not showing (in Chrome)

Not sure if any of you might have a clue what’s going on, but as of the last few hours whenever I search for something in Youtube on Chrome my screen just looks like this (results clipped, I can’t scroll down, drag down, view ‘filters’ etc.)

For some reason it only seems to be the search results affected. Home screen, playlists, search history screens etc. all fully visible and scrollable. Youtube in Firefox also fine.

I’ve already tried deleting cookies, cache etc. Temporarily turning off adblocker. Any other ideas? Cheers.

mono-stereo as I say, it’s working fine on Firefox. It’s also fine on the Chrome browser of my android phone.

But Chrome on my laptop is my primary browser.

    Fairly sure this thread won’t be troubling the end of year awards.

    I could be wrong though.

      Smallman1 probably the first time you’ve ever not been wrong about anything.

      PS it’s clearly not intending to be

        Hugo, now that Google owns YouTube, there’s a special automatically downloaded plug-in for Chrome that prevents really boring people from watching their favourite boring things so that YouTube’s servers are more efficient.

        Tried updating the browser? Clean install?

          The problem with that is my macbook and iOS are too old to now update the browser.

          But I’d never had a problem with youtube prior to this and the problem literally started in the middle of a browsing session, with as far as I’m aware no changes to any other settings occurring.

            Hugo, even YouTube is sick of your antics.

            You’ve probably been writing paragraphs of shite arguing with people in the comments section.

              Oh I can still do that, but I just have to get to the videos at the moment via either searching on google, or searching on firefox then pasting the URL in to Chrome.

                Happened to me with safari / iOS, and direct through the app, the other day.

                Fucked it off for a few hours and sorted itself, put it down to some kind of update.

                More anecdotal than helpful I admit!

                  well it’s reassuring to know it might at least not just be my system being screwed and it could also eventually resolve itself

                    I was gonna say if you have an old AdBlocker in chrome they may have cottoned onto it and given you the finger (wheyyy) but if MC had it happen then yeah just wait it out.

                    Not literally though. Do something today 😉
