    [even bigger rock] “No, Youtube, I don’t want to watch TF2 content. Stop recommending it to me”

    It’s like why even have an algorithm if it’s just going to show you what it wants you to see rather than what you want to see.

      Do you pay for premium? From what I’ve seen the algorithm is much more hostile to people who don’t pay. I literally _never _ have these problems about YouTube recommending stuff I don’t care about.

        Their algorithm is constantly trying to groom its viewers to the far right. They aren’t getting a cent from me.

          Like I said, none of that happens to me and I’ve been using YouTube since 2006. It really does seem like a difference between paid and unpaid amounts.
