The YouTube algorithm has made it largely useless to me recently. I’m served up constant clickbait videos with fake reaction thumbnails. I know there’s a lot more under the hood but it’s a slog to find anything but that. Add in the insane amount of commercials and I have a product I use a lot less than in the past.
As a side note: I find the recent trend in low quality commercials, made to look like reviews from everyday people, very annoying. It’s a new level of dishonesty that reeks of desperation.
