You only assume recommendations are based on ratings, but you don't know. And I have seen your metaphorical green grass, because actual ratings were a thing up until about 4 years ago, remember?
>I don't find any of that on my end.
Good for you. The true crime genre has been hit hard by AI slop.

I remember this conjecture of yours (that ratings unilaterally ceased to matter as soon as they stopped being displayed to users) very well. And unlike you, I can see over to the other side of the fence -- in the present day -- at a whim: All I have to do is fire up YouTube in a private session on a disused device. It's fucking awful over there; it's complete bedlam.
- encom 10mo agoYes, a blank YouTube session is the 10th circle of hell Dante didn't know about. What's your point?
- ssl-3 10mo agoSame point as always: That it definitely doesn't have to be that way at all. (I can't make you take the blinders off and use that utterly useless, vestigial Thumbs Down button, though. You're free to live your life with as blindly and with much suffering as you wish, no matter what anyone else thinks.)
