Again, another case of, I should pay attention to my own warnings about 2024. Something weird I've been noticing lately you can probably imagine how autistic my youtube feed looks in comparison to the average normie but perhaps it's due to me clicking around movie clips or something occasionally the stupid algorithm has decided that means I consent to having all of these normie channels shoved in my face.
Among the weird channels I've been recommended are these cringey recap channels which are the laziest content ever and literally just jump cut clips and a robot voice doing summaries of movie plots. It was getting spammed so bad at me that I ended up making liberal use of youtube extension to block the offending channels.
Now I'm even being recommended normie shit like commentary channels among other things and youtube WON'T FUCKING LEAVE ME ALONE. I think this is classic youtube tinkering of the algorithm in order to try and shove mainstream channels in your face in an effort to 'de-radicalise' you except in typical incompetent programmer fashion it's recommending all the other crap along with it including television related stuff which I've gotten a bit of.
This is a bit like if I wanted to watch anime online and instead of recommending me anime to watch it just spams Breaking Bad and shitty cop shows in my face, all this is going to do is piss me off.
I once watched part of a video of a particular high-subscriber YouTube personality who does nothing but play other peoples' videos and comment on them real-time. Now they show up in every single recommended video list and I can't seem to make them go away even if I click on other personalities' videos.
I figure it's a combination of YouTube wanting to appease the ad buyers and the fact this personality has hundreds of videos (even though YouTube recommends the same 4-5 videos constantly).
Which one was it? Some of them are particularly hilarious with how blatantly they're just lazy in how they produce react content. I know that SniperWolf is one of the most used examples but yeah there are others. I would say even Asmongold and Hasan Piker fall into these categories. Asmongold does totally normie takes the majority of the time and Hasan just streams his chair.
I'm not sure why you say "even" there. They are the worst.
I think there are people that are determined to catch them up, it's early days yet. Although allegedly Asmongold and other streamers have been involved in some sort of possible charity scam now I've mentioned those two.

I actually don't know how mods/admins feel about kiwifarms links but it provides some proper context here.
