Sooo...Google's removing annotations...

Talk about whatever - video games, sports, doesn't matter as long as it's not in another section.

Sooo...Google's removing annotations...

Yeah, you read that right. According to a YouTuber I watch, effective May 2nd, say bye-bye to adding annotations to YouTube videos and editing them. Annotations from past videos will stay, but other than that, they're gone.
Your thoughts, guys?

Meh. They're more convenient to some people.
May have been annoying but you could have turned them off or watched videos on a YT version without any annote support whatsoever.
Actually tbh they were only really annoying back when anyone could put annotations in a video and lots of people just spammed random stuff in them, ruining it. THAT I'm sure hardly anyone that isn't a huge troll would miss.
