Have you noticed that YouTube took away the "copy link " feature so we can't send songs on here like we used to?

A couple of weeks ago YouTube took away the "copy link" feature and ever since then, every song I try to play when a member puts a song in their question, opinion, or reply, I'm not able to watch or listen to the song.
I get a black screen with an error code 15.
I am really bummed out about this!!🥴

The "copy link" feature is still there for sharing their videos though.

The stupid AI BOT on here put my question under the GaG Community topic! Now everything is going to go there probably! Grrrr...👎

What? 😳 But I was able to copy the link of funny videos today to share it with my loved ones. I'm using the app. Did you face this issue on website version or app?

So I still have the copy link feature in youtube as well as insert link here on this app.
That being said, the app hever worked for me with videos. Thats a gag problem though not on youtubes part.

I looked it up on the internet and it said YouTube took the copy link away because of copyright issues. Look it up.

Thats a link copied by the "copy link" feature. The gag app doesn't let me paste it better but the option is still there for me. Maybe its a regional thing?

@msmissydc
I really don't understand why it's not on my phone anymore but some people still have it.🤷🏼‍♀️
I looked it up online and it even says they took it away for copyright purposes.
I still have the "copy link" for YouTube videos and it works but they took it away to share song videos.🫤

[msmissydc]

You do know its an option from the "share menu" Right? Its not its own option anymore. MAybe thats what changed for you?

Thank you for trying to troubleshoot my problem. I appreciate it.
I have been sharing music 🎶 videos from YouTube for years now so I know how to do it.
The internet even says YouTube took away the copy link feature away because of infringement purposes.

I got the black screen and error code 15 and it said this video is unavailable.

Are you using the "copy
link " feature on YouTube?

The picture of it is there but I cannot access it.

I went online and it said YouTube no longer has the "COPY LINK" anymore because of copyright issues I think? 🤔

[Ariesman81]

Share>>>copy link

[Ariesman81]

Too bad too... great song

[LiamJHayden]

I have always just pasted the link. Seems to still work.

It still works for me. You seem to have problems with technology things the rest of us don't have.

[TonyMetal___86]

It's working fine as usual with me, it must be a problem in your phone's system miss sage

[sage2021]

@TonyMetal___86

As I have already mentioned that I looked it up on the internet and they said they took it away due to copyright issues.
So, what does that tell you? 🤔

[TonyMetal___86]

For copyright issues means that you can't copy it somewhere else, they are forced to watch it on youtube, unless you have another link which ain't copyrighted...

[Xawyx-2]

Yes, I noticed that. Too bad... maybe they'll fix it in the next update.

[sirderpsalot123]

I still can

[sage2021]

I can open it if the link is sent but not like before when we just tapped the picture and it played.
Is it because I use the app?

[sirderpsalot123]

I use the app. Try deleting the app and installing it again

[sirderpsalot123]

Or maybe check if you need to update the app
