YouTube says it will not produce its annual end-of-year "Rewind" video this year, due to the global pandemic.
The video-sharing platform has produced an annual retrospective since 2010, featuring well-known YouTube stars referencing big viral moments.
But, in a statement it said: "2020 has been different. And it doesn't feel right to carry on as if it weren't."
YouTube's Rewind videos have often divided fans, and 2018's effort became the most-disliked video on YouTube.
In 2019, the business changed the format of the video and produced a compilation of the year's "most-liked" clips, gauged by clicks of the "like" button.
