Yeah the algorithm imo is a blessing and a curse. You can find your niche and get really good content relevant to you that's not the shitty dance videos. But of course their algorithm is so great that it keeps you in that bubble and keeps you watching for too long.

And if we compare to YouTube shorts... I've found that place to be a hell hole. Facebook videos, Snapchat, all the other platforms have less people and a worse algorithm that pushes those kinds of annoying dance videos or (YouTube especially) right wing, misogynist, crap that I downvote, report, and select "don't recommend" dozens of times without any change.

Anyways 😅 rant over. We should all get off the Internet more and touch grass tbf
