My god i cant find anything unless i type out an exact name of the video, recommendations under currently watched videos and just in general are the same no matter what. It feels like a lottery when you hope that youtube will bless you with content that you were searching for. Im aware that im ranting but i just cant with it anymore. All they had to do is just leave things how they were and not gut an algorithm that worked just fine before. I recently used bilibili and the contrast is painful. Like WHAT??? A related but not seen before video/thumbnail??? Under a video of the same nature??? What a brilliant idea!!!

    Everyone, please do yourselves a favour and use NewPipe on Android, and Invidious proxy instances via web browser. I attained some peace with throwing YouTube.com and its recommendation al Gore rhythm into the gutter.

    Another tip, if you want to wade through YouTube lib/con brainrot, go to socialist channels’ videos and see recommendations for those videos. Chain up and find more related channels this way. And stick to those channels as often as possible.
