And would you care to document for posterity when was that last time? I think the change in YouTube comments happened some 7-8 years ago, so 2017 or so.

- cooper_ganglia 2y agoFor me, the last time I saw it was last week. Prior to that, probably the week before. It's definitely gotten better over the last 2-3 years, but it's certainly not perfect.
- dotnet00 2y agoI see "this video is awful, check out my channel" or "I did X awful thing, check my channel!" style spam comments on YouTube daily.
- recursivecaveat 2y agoIronically the current spam trend is for bots to post very vague and effusive positive comments "Wow, you're such an inspiration" to try to get clicks on their profiles. I think the only real hateful bot trend was lengthy religious screeds maybe 2-3 years ago. Nowadays the religious spam is either more positive or apocalyptic I would say. There's plenty of people who post lots of hateful material, but since it's generally at least germane I assume it's at most trivially automated?
