Ah yes, it's the consumer's fault for no longer being able to use the up/down ratio to tell if a video is clickbait or low quality. Not because google took it

Not because google took it away to protect that sweet advertising money.
The amount of ppl shamelessly stanning for companies has just gotten ridiculous.
- keiferski 3y agoI don’t particularly like Google and have been slowly trying to move my accounts away from them. Paying a small fee for a superior service is common sense and has nothing to with “stanning” for companies. I also don’t even pay attention to upvotes 99% of the time, as it’s pretty unlikely that an old lecture about Hegel hosted on a philosophy channel is going to be clickbait. The clickbait stuff is almost always immediately obvious just from the title and thumbnail image alone.
- Wurdan 3y agoPeople have different strategies for discovering new content, I guess. It’s rare for me to watch stuff from creators I don’t know, so I’m not usually surprised by the quality of them. But if any kind of sponsorship of a video counts as “shameless stanning” to you then yeah the whole concept of YT is just not going to be your jam.
