Today in a Privacy community a post about YouTube. No word about privacy but all about which software or settings are needed to watch videos and the money needed to host videos. It made me wonder whether some of you can lead a meaningful life without YouTube. Or will a cold turkey bring the worst out of you ?
Especially with the Premium algorithm, it’s just so good at finding super niche stuff that’s pretty interesting. Been watching some Netflix shaming levels of documentaries made by super passionate people.
I kind of hate the privacy nightmare but it actually delivers really well for me.
Does Premium actually use a different recommendation algorithm?
I’ve been on it for way too long to know, but when I added my wife to my family plan she commented on the immediate increase in suggestion quality. Although it could also just be less junk/ads in the front page, I don’t think it’s advertised as a feature.
