> You have endless entertainment for free on youtube, but it's all data collection and an algorithm dedicated to amplification of the worst aspects of your psyche. It'll entertain, and recommend you toward extremism. My spouse and I never use the YT homepage, where these recommendations are made. We have two use cases: search for something specific 5% of the time, view videos from subscribed channels 95% of the time. The subscriptions feed shows a nice, clean timeline of all videos ordered by upload date. So we get none of the “recommendation rabbit hole effect”. I do wish that one could have multiple named lists of subscriptions so that we could separate things out by interest. FWIW, this is the YT app on AppleTV.
