I’m frustrated with youtube. If they track me by IP, it’s not working. A whole page of videos that I have zero interest in. It’s like the anti-analytics algorithm.
Been like this for a month or two.
- jasonv 6y agoI joke that I want a YouTube “for adults”. Not “adult YouTube”. But the stuff they push on me would be appropriate for, uhh.. youth of a certain age. But I never click on them, I never will, I don’t understand why their algorithm can’t see what I’m subscribed to and what I watch and socialize accordingly. I think the algos must really only work on the thinnest of the most popular videos... the daily dramas of you tubers with shocked faces. Or the algos heavily compensate for engagement and monetization and there’s no marketable middle tale. But if that’s the best YouTube can do with the data they have, I can’t wait for a disruption that isn’t exclusively the province of “the youth”.. /leaving the lawn...
- Nathanba 6y agoI'm getting decent suggestions but you have train it well. Get rid of all music channels, all news channels, all channels that the algorithm could possibly connect to mainstream content.
- tmaly 6y agoI always try to use incognito mode when viewing YouTube to keep my viewing history clean. I do not want suggestions on how to fix a garbage disposal after watching one video about it.
