    Nothing makes me feel more disconnected from humanity than the YouTube trending tab

      I feel that way when I see YouTube shorts. Some of them are big titted girls doing shit which I can understand why those get clicked on but a lot of it I can’t even figure out what is supposed to be happening.

          But there’s no big titted girls in the ones I can’t figure out. It’s just people doing weird shit.

            Hm interesting

            Maybe it’s just one of those things where it’s so absurd it’s funny, like the meme man ones such as “as yes the cheese stick hath returned” or a farside

        Hm, the Shorts algorithm should be generally based on your normal recommendations until you start watching them.

        You know, potentially controversial opinion, but I kinda like shorts, since by now the algo has figured out that I like longer documentary-style videos on normal videos, but still get vtuber clips and cute animal videos as shorts.

          Maybe I’m just getting the general ones then. I never log into the browser I use for Youtube and I have it wiping all the browsing data when I close it.

      There is a trending tab? Huh. I really only use youtube when I want something specific and I never use thier app or webpage so I had no idea.
