I freely admit I'm a techno idiot, but what happened to Hooktube? Can't search on it now?

Hooktube is basically "the conservative Youtube" because it's not owned and tracked by Google. It's normally set up like Youtube with suggestions of videos on the right and the ability to search topics above.

Now it's changed and has a bunch of gogglygook at the bottom that I can't decifer.

Can't search - What's up with it? LINK /

I never used the homepage. I always just took the youtube link and replaced 'you' with 'hook.'

It's basically the archive.is of videos.

They probably just changed the code/format. No big deal.

From the changelog:

quote:

July 11: HookTube no longer uses YouTube api for anything, and most features (channel page, search, related videos, etc) are gone. No choice.

I'm a techno dummy as well.

I honestly thought this was going to be a thread about you not being able to search some hooker site

Thank you. I wonder why that is?

Someone or some entity has totally effed up it's ability to be user friendly.

Probably some proprietary problems. I would think that they just lifted the source code of YT somehow for the UI capabilities, so they will have to create it on their own.

Wow.
You’re a techno idiot for not knowing what happened to Hooktube.

I didn’t even know it existed, I would have thought Stormy’s vagina would have been featured, and I’m still too confused and uncertain to even consider linking to it!

What is the technical term for 5 steps below techno idiot?

okay good so hopefully it will be fixed

I've noticed when a video that exposes leftist BS keeps getting deleted on Youtube, it's freely available on Hooktube.

I hope it gets fixed.

It's okay brother. Now you know about it, and hopefully it will get it's user friendliness back. I'm looking forward to using it and never using Youtube again.

Cheer up!

The next lower stage of disinformation or complete and utter stupidity on a subject of technology would make you a Techno Democrat.

You would then of course project your total lack of intelligence upon everyone else and not accept the fact you barely keep from drooling and touch yourself publicly.
