We need to talk about YouTube and it's algorithms...

 It seems more and more as time goes on, and more foreign coders and DEI employees are let loose on the YouTube recommendations algorithm, that it has gotten to be a shitshow of a platform. Below are some examples of the head-scratching videos that randomly pop-up in my recommendations feed. It's almost like coders are pushing their favs to consumers whether we have a propensity for watching those kinds of videos or not. 

I started taking pics of the completely random videos as they would appear in my feed. Then I noticed that it happens way more often than mere bad coding would suggest. The rate at which these outliers appear is more consistent with someone pushing these weird videos into the search and recommendations feed than just plain bad coding.

I give you the worst recommendations over the past 2 weeks:

This first one is the winner of the most random shit I've seen yet.



These are in no particular order or quality...



A twofer!



If you tell me not to watch - I'm not gonna watch.



























That's all for this edition. I might keep capturing these if the stats suggest I should!
