    Google used to have a contract with a company who would do like QA type s*** on search results (extending to Youtube) to make sure that algorithm changes actually were making the user experience as intended, but they terminated the contract a year ago which is why both Google (AI generated results for f***ing everything) and YouTube (no actual understanding of search results or related videos) are the way they are now.

    And it won't be getting better any time soon bc they fought with the company for like years to get the minimum wage for the contract to $15/hr which is what led to the termination of the contract shortly after so get used to it

    ok you might be onto something

    I thought I was the only one noticing this the past month with my orders.

    Once companies like YouTube, Amazon got too big with no real competitors, they got too comfortable and s*** like this happens.

    Wtf is up with this plataform nowadays

    I used to open youtube back then and have at least 10 new videos to watch each day

    This s*** is so dry now...

    Geography, history, geopolitics, science, music content, sports... no

    Just straight ass

    Remove all likes and subscribed channels. Delete you history on it if it's still not where you like it. Shortcut can be to start a whole new channel but it's not necessarily needed

    My algo is still pure and all I let it use is my watch history and sometimes I dislike a channel to stop me from seeing it

    If you don't have likes or channels to influence your algo you get a much purer contemporary feed

    yeah i have a noscript that blocks it but i'm more talking about the apps and since it's a minor annoyance I see as it as the cost of doing business with Google. Meta is so much worse I can't even use my VR headset anymore because I get annoyed

    You know youtube take suggestion from all your browsing data like other tabs open or browsing history right ?

    People have been getting hit with those p*** ads even if they don't watch p***. YouTube hasn't put effort on moderating the ads for some time.

    My ads are literally

    • Parents from school shooting victims
    • Opioid addiction ads
    • Join the Marines
    • Some fake food scientist dieticians

    Long live America

    I haven't seen an ad in like a decade, so I don't know what it'll show me honestly.

    i'm more saying it seems like you just started watching whatever one day without pausing your history or maybe someone else did and now the algorithm likes slop. it is kind of something you have to pay attention to if you want to keep control of your algorithm. clearing your history is the only solution atp fam
