## Reviews

### "YouTube - World's Largest Free Online Video Sharing" — 5.0/5

> **Nathaniel** | *19 March 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about YouTube is quite simple. There is so much content housed on YouTube that just about any topic you can think of has tons of content related to it uploaded on YouTube. I like tackling projects myself whenever possible, so I especially like using YouTube for how-to videos.
> 
> **Cons**: Having been a YouTube viewer since it's inception, there are two main cons that I can think of. First is the increase in advertisements over the years. I understand why they need to be there to continue to allow YouTube to be free for users, but it can still get a little annoying. Second is the fact that for many years, audio would pause on a mobile device when you left your YouTube screen or your screen went to sleep. Now, I understand you can pay for a premium account to eliminate this issue. But to me, I think that should be a free feature.
> 
> YouTube is a video sharing platform that hosts everything from music videos and educational content to vlogs, product reviews, and live event coverage. YouTube creators can build channels, monetize their content, and reach global audiences without traditional media gatekeepers. For viewers, YouTube functions as both a search engine and an entertainment hub where content on just about any topic imaginable is available with just a few clicks.
