If a video's owner has turned on comments, you can post comments and like, dislike, or reply to other people's comments on a video.
View comments on videos
To view comments on a video, scroll down the video's page. Replies are threaded to make it easy to follow conversations. All comments on YouTube are public and anyone can reply to a comment that you post.
If you can't find a comment after you get a notification, it's possible that the comment has already been removed. Comments can be removed by the person who posted them, the channel owner, or for policy violations.
