@wiksee Bro if you're watching on PC or Mac, just Hit the 'C' key and boom subtitles are gone. But on mobile, you gotta keep tapping that CC button every time to turn them off. Honestly, I don’t think there’s any setting that keeps subtitles off by default from the start.

@roblaxmod have you tried youtube premium? I think Youtube premium has ability to enable/disable some feature.

@roblaxmod From what I understand, wiksee is talking about titles, not subtitles, which are a different matter entirely.

Anyway, assuming you’re logged into Youtube with your Google account (and that you only view content in a handful of consistent languages rather than a wide variety as this would be annoying to do then), I believe you can circumvent the translation by adding those languages to your Google account settings.

Though, to be honest, I haven’t noticed any autotrans lately on my end, even though I only have EN added, so I don’t really know how to test it. I know it for sure happened in the past… Either YouTube came to the conclusion that I must not need the translation, or it’s just really damn janky like that lmao
