Lots of popular Youtubers are already there, and they strip the sponsor segments out of their content too.
The popular YouTubers are trash tho
Most of them are literally Nazis. Anytime I go to youtube and finish a video all the suggested videos to watch after are obscene "anti-woke" trash.
The youtube to right-wing pipeline is real.
EDIT:
Here's after me watching an old Lightning Bolt music video. Six videos are related to Lightning Bolt, being live videos or music videos, but a solid four videos are all weird right-wing Nazi pipeline shit. One defending Trump and saying he has a plan, one lamenting the pushback against Tesla, one shitting on the new Snow White for being "woke," and one literally with the giant title "fuck your pronouns." Plus one old cartoon and an episode of Surrounded with one doctor vs. twenty anti-vax (I am not convinced this Surrounded show actually does anything helpful for any discourse.) I have watch history disabled so none of this comes from my watch history, this is the default that youtube gives to people.
Weird.
Mine is just Anime, vtuber, tech (the good kind) and edutainment (e.g. kurzgesagt, real engineering, ezc.).
Maybe you engage heavily in political content because I mostly avoid it like the plague.
Man how many people fail to fucking read this is literally re-enforcing my point that maybe more people need to read. This me, quoting myself, from above. Further, someone else made the same kind of comment over a half hour ago and I responded the same, noting that I had already mentioned that I have watch history disabled, so Youtube does not and cannot give me recommendations based on my watch history.
I actually almost never watch Youtube except for the odd video game trailer or random comedy-shit-post-snippet. I don't have any subscriptions or channels I care about. I read.
That's a you problem. Why are you complaining?
Y'all are just really desperate to kill any remaining faith I had in humanity that they aren't all stupid selfish jerks, huh?
yeah thats such a you problem, I cant believe he's complaining about nazis being default on YouTube, that's such an isolated problem that only affects him, and why would anyone complain about nazis anyway aren't they the good guys? - you, apparently
They are shooting themself in the foot by not letting the algorithm do its job.
I did not say nazis are the good guys. Don't put words in my mouth.
sorry
