One of the most annoying things YT does to me is recommend videos I’ve already watched. Like I get it, they are perfect for me, exactly the type of video I watch. That’s why I’ve already seen them. And because I don’t have the memory of a housefly, I actually remember what the video was about. If I wanted to watch it again, I would navigate to my history or the channel it’s from and rewatch it there.
It makes absolutely no sense to me, why recommend videos I’ve already seen?
I use a browser plugin to hide those videos, but it doesn’t fully work.
Every. Fucking. Year. I swear, google just runs a query to remove view history past a certain age. Every. Fucking. Year, there comes a time where my ENTIRE FUCKING HOME PAGE basically resets to a year ago, because it forgot I watched every fucking video already.
Fuck Google. They’re too lazy to do anything correct.
I miss when people made stuff because they loved making stuff, not because they wanted to get rich.
Sort of like how girls used to post sexy photos of themselves because they wanted attention, now they do it to get rich.

They still do, but you’ll never find it in the existing layout. The only stuff that bubbles to the surface is so heavily SEO engineered and hyper-monetized that it’s got to be sixteen ads on the back of an infomercial in order to break even.
