Post & interact with comments
If a video's owner has enabled comments, you can post comments and like, dislike, or reply to other people's comments on a video. You can also edit or delete any of your own comments. Replies to a comment are threaded beneath the original comment so you can follow the conversation.
Post comments on a video
Public videos
All comments on public videos on YouTube are public and anyone can reply to a comment that you post. If you're a Google Apps account user, any comment you post on YouTube is publicly visible to users outside of your domain.
To add a comment, just type in the "Share your thoughts" or "Add a comment" box under the video, then select Post.
Private videos
Comments are not available on private videos. If you want to allow comments on a video that's not publicly available, post an unlisted video instead.
Unlisted videos
You can comment and reply to comments on unlisted videos. Comments on unlisted videos can be seen by anyone who has the link to the video. Learn more about unlisted videos and privacy settings.
