YouTube is one of the most popular apps. Millions of people around the world use it every day. Thanks to technological development, the platform has become a source of income for individuals who create engaging content that attracts an audience.

As technologies and various applications continue to evolve, the YouTube platform doesn't want to fall behind. That's why its owners have announced changes that will be implemented to ensure that creators and viewers keep coming back to watch the content shared there. According to the announcement, the platform will resemble Netflix.

YouTube like Netflix? Changes are coming to the platform

YouTube's owners understand that videos on their platform are increasingly viewed on computers, phones, and TVs. That's why they made the app resemble the well-known media company that owns the VOD service Netflix. They plan to introduce new features such as seasons and episodes.

This solution will allow creators to divide their content into "seasons" and "episodes," making it easier for viewers to access specific content parts. YouTube's owners promise that everything will be easily accessible, and the new feature will be usable with a TV remote. The Netflix streaming platform inspired this idea. Everything will be in one place, arranged sequentially. Who knows, it might work.
