Hey everybody, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with removing a Google+ account from a YouTube channel, I've tried using lots of tutorials where the option to disconnect just comes up out of nowhere, still never works, hasn't appeared on the channel, even when I try to delete the Google+ account, it gives me options of places to disconnect but it just links me to the same page without the option. If anyone knows a way to bypass all this and just be able to disconnect, that would be really appreciated. Thanks .

Youtube has gone all to hell since google has gotten so tied up with them. I cant even post comments or watch videos without getting pops up asking what name I want to use or if I want to sign up for something else. I dont even bother anymore.

And now i can't post comments anymore unless i have a Google + page linked to my Youtube channel.

This really sucks. Like the guy above me, we can't even post comments without linking our channel with Google Plus. Who even likes it?

Seeing as you can't even leave or reply to comments anymore without having your channel connected to one, there's officially no way out. Even once you connect, if you wanted to separate the accounts again, it says you'd only have 14 days to do so. So I'm guessing maybe that time expired in your case.

I'm happy with it.
Kinda.
Okay, it sucks. But idk. Maybe I'll get used to it.

YouTube has gone down the drain since 2009.

Yeah I am a bit gutted. I can't post any comments till I am linked. Can you still keep your YouTube username?

If you go to your YouTube settings, next to your profile picture it should have an option to temporarily disable Google +. Problem is you can't comment.

To be honest, you might as well all get used to it. Soon it's going to be the only way to use YouTube. :/

Yes you can still keep your username, it is CONSTANTLY offering you to change it though which is annoying.
Google+ doesn't change anything on your YouTube page, except for when you click on your name in the top right, you can't go to your inbox from there, you have to go from your video manager or something. So that's pretty annoying but I've gotten used to it.
The new comment system is starting to grow on me, being able to have group conversations over 1 comment and stuff and to be able to see every response in one go is just time saving. So I'm starting to like the new YT Updates.

I dislike the new comment system because I don't want to be told every-time I receive a +1.

I did this the other day. That google+ was a pain in the ass. I was able to disconnect it though. I think you need a google email address and a youtube channel to do it. Im not sure but i was able to disconnect mine no problem.

I went into my account setting and there was a link in blue that gave me the option to disconnect my google+ from youtube and it was a success and i can still comment on videos and i got my old avatar back!
