It's useless because there are thousands of idiots with a camera who record pointless clickbait videos to extract ad money. The signal-to-noise ratio is completely out of wack. There are are tons of 10+ minute videos about topics which say absolutely nothing. It's like college papers with a minimum page requirement where the student has to just fill the page with words which mean nothing. There very little actual value in most of the videos. IMO anyone who enjoys and watches youtube regularly uses it as a mind numbing medication to exit our terrible existence of life for a few hours.

- Workaccount2 3y agoThere are thousands of channels that put out top-tier content regularly. I am subbed to over 100 channels and always have a plethora of new stuff to watch. If your interests don't extend beyond stupid click-bait content, I don't find it surprising to think that youtube is only full of stupid clickbait content.
