What I hate about Netflix’s recommendations is how if you watch any standup comedy special, Netflix decides that you’re a huge, undiscerning standup fan and recommends all standup comedy to you, forever.
- rypskar 7y agoNot sure of that. I have never watched standup and Netflix still recommends lots of standup comedy
- jvagner 7y agoNetflix is all-in on comedy, esp standup. But I have the same problem with the music services -- I listen to a lot of "quiet" music playlists for sleep and work. And so, all the playlists Spotify build for me are quiet. But I also follow and listen to a lot of rock/noise/loud music. But the "made for you" formulas won't budge. I jokingly believe I need two services -- one where I listen to ambient/quiet/etc, and another where I never listen to it. But the probability is I'll stop caring about music services and live without them. I don't need to curate my relationship with services like they're tomagachi's. I pay for Youtube Premium, but when I subscribe to a certain number of music artists, it chokes my video subscription feeds. Moving to willfully not caring for content, music and videos alike.
- lowtolerance 7y agoThere’s definitely a big difference once you’ve actually watched one. You can create a new profile and see it for yourself. Or at least, this was the case the last time I attempted to verify.
