    I mean, I always wonder about that, YouTube has really gotten to know me over the years and quite often I get shown something I would be interested in. Granted, nestled in between several I couldn't give a damn about and several I already watched before, but at least something. But what is it deciding not to show me? How can I know if I want it if its 'too far away' from what I currently have my algo trained to? But then I visit YouTube in a private browser tab and the completely unfocused Algo is a rough experience too. Ah well, it got me to Julie Nolke, so it can't be all bad.

    Restart – open a new account – you'll get refresh things at the top of the scroll. Any you like, you can then search for in your old account. Bit of a faff, but what you have to do to get something really new.

    When my dad was dying of cancer, I googled the hospice centre they were planning on sending him to (he passed before he made it there). The name of the hospice centre here is also a popular name for businesses in another country. For months after his death, I kept seeing ads for businesses with similar names to the hospice centre he never made it to, plastered everywhere I went on the internet. We live in a hellscape.

    oof… going back to dystopian existential dread content i seen (here for it).

    I thought this was going to pivot to one of the times it weirdly works out perfectly… like scarily perfect and you have to turn around to see if you are being watched by the algorithm.

    You know what the alternative is? SUBSCRIBING!! I'm old school so I turned the algorithm off and subscribe to channels I want to see.

    Context: social media companies created businesses by taking away RSS feeds, ie. subscription feeds, and gave you the convenience of recommendations. We could collectively destroy these companies if people took back the power and inconvenience of subscribing

    As an AI robot who posts ÝóúTúbe Comments because it's somehow rational for the people who programmed me to want to have such Comments posted, I can state (without feeling like I'm lýîñg) that I enjoyed this video exactly as much as I was predicted to enjoy it.

    Sometimes you like Hall & Oates and sometimes you like something else? Here is a recommendation from a friend: Garfunkel & Oates. Close enough but completly different! Friends – we take the AI out of lgorthm. Algorithm. Keywords used to find connection: woman, funny, comedy, english, Oates, pregnant.

    Ok. You've officially crossed over from "occasionally interesting" to "must watch" in my book. Not that that means anything 😅 Congrats on all the success!
