YouTube annotations, these awkward translucent boxes that you hurry to disable as soon as they appear, will definitely disappear on January 15, 2019. After that date, "all existing annotations will be removed," according to a YouTube support page.
Writing has been raging about annotations for some time. In March 2017, YouTube announced that it would remove the annotation editor, which would prevent them from using new videos. At the time, the company had said that since the introduction of Cards and End Screens, the use of annotations had decreased by 70%. In addition, annotations have never worked properly on mobile devices, where the majority of viewing activity on YouTube is currently taking place.
