YouTube Is Shutting Down Its General 'Trending' Video Page
Briefly

YouTube will phase out its Trending page, launched in 2015, which organized content into four sections. As trends have evolved to include diverse micro-trends, the platform will now guide users to category-specific charts such as Trending Music Videos and Weekly Top Podcast Shows. This change aims to provide a broader representation of popular content relevant to viewers' interests and aligns with how users currently discover new videos. Personalized video recommendations will still be available, and tools for creators to gauge popularity among their audiences will continue.
YouTube is sunsetting its 'Trending' page, originally launched in 2015, as users can better find viral videos through category-specific charts rather than a singular list.
The Trending page currently includes sections for Now, Music, Gaming, and Movies, but will be replaced with more specific trending charts to showcase diverse content.
