YouTube used to promote the most-watched videos on their front page. This made it so that an unfunny white comedian with a bit called something like “history of dance” was kept in that unearned position because people who hadn’t seen the routine assumed it must be awesome for being on the front page. It was garbage, it was overhyped, I’m sure the dumbass felt like the best comic in the world, I hated it because I had to test software related to YouTube daily, I was glad when they changed it.

Long way of saying this idea is not a good one long term.
