And plenty of poor low-subscriber channels that are actually really good and could blow up at some point.
I’ve certainly watched some people from before they were big and from memory their content was more or less just as good in the “early” days. Which all up makes for a pile of stuff!
Youtube "pushes" whatever gets more views and longer watch time.
If trashy crap is being suggested, that means other people are watching it in increased numbers.
That's pretty much what I said.
Google pushes what you click. Stop watching this kind of content and it'll probably stop being recommended to you
they are not optimizing for your enjoyment, they''re optimizing for your engagement. they don't give a fuck if you hate what you're watching as long as you watch it for longer.
