Been trying to find my YouTube comments for the last 3-4 hrs. FoxyTechTips was annoying with her tiny voice and loud background music but persevered anyway by downloading Firefox app since that was her favorite and was getting no where without it. But no luck with tons of dead ends. Then tried YourSixStudios and ChrisGTXvideos following all their directions but still no luck and more dead ends. Was I supposed to download that studio app tooโฆ Just to view my silly YouTube comments???! YouTube allowed me to view my comments a few yrs ago with no problemsโฆWhat on earth happened?? Why is youtube making this so darn hard when everything else about them is user-friendly??!! I can tell Iโm not the only one having this problem, please do whatever you can to help us.
