I made my kids stop watching YouTube. Problems solved. This is what happens when the content on your platform is almost entirely crap. YouTube is like the sewer

  I'd argue YouTube is more like a city. It's got its sewers, and it's got its seedy areas, but it also has its museums.

    It's a city where you are teleported into the sewer, and you have to click back or close to get out of it again, but you've still smelt the sewer.

      Ok. I seem to have less trouble using it while staying in better areas. Same goes with hanging out with my 5 year old in our city (San Francisco). Lots of ugly stuff here, and I wouldn't set her loose without me to guide her, but the good stuff makes it worth it.

      I don't know what YouTube y'all are using. The recommendations on my end are pretty great. Gaming replays from my favorite video game, woodworking videos, cooking videos, the latest piece from Jonathan Blow, a review of Blade Runner 2048, a video about gardening, and some Star Wars criticism. Ten videos above the fold that exactly suit my interests, any one of which I'd probably be happy to watch, and some of which might even be edifying.

    Apparently, my kids like the corner store that is run creepy people and has over-priced candy. Looks mostly like seedy areas to me. The museums can be found elsewhere, they aren't limited to YouTube as a platform/medium.
