Why Has Youtube Gone To stuff Recently?
<< < (2/9) > >>
Master Matthew²:
I never noticed this, probably because I use adblock and I use youtube on my account so regularly that view shilling stuff doesn't show up for me at all.

yeah, basically

and not in a weird nostalgia way, but in an actual, genuine way, I'd like to see youtube be more like it used to be.
like, if you use wayback machine, you can see tons of featured videos with like 20-100 views (which is actually a neat feature, letting random people get their stuff on the front page) and the videos are just random but genuinely interesting and in a way more human and personal than a bunch of let's play garbage being put up for ad revenue

just short videos of people havin a good time, walking and talking around the house or outdoors, doing something they think is cool, going out travelling, or telling a story they have
it's like home videos and personal experiences sent out for a bunch of strangers, and it's kinda nice

Still some clickbait, but definitely less than youtube

I don't use Adblock to support the channels I like, but yeah there is a stuffload of cringeworthy garbage on YouTube
