Did something happen to youtube?

submitted by germ22 to whatever 1.8 yearsJul 28, 2023 23:42:02 ago (+6/-0)     (whatever)

Starting yesterday the video suggestions totally changed. I used to have more educational content suggested. Machining, home building, science... Than since yesterday it's filled with what i would call "normy trash". A good third is Mr. Beast, zero interest in that guy, a bunch of movie trailers, niggers everywhere.
this is what youtube looks like to me now. I need to search for the content i want to watch, and even after that those guys never make it into the top page.
Is this a result of Canada's stupid new online creator law?

Do not recommend is a thing, it fixes issues like this because eventually all the shill content will be blocked.

You can "not recommend" all you want. Itll still fill your recommended list shit with a literally endless stream of trash the jews pay google to put a the top of the list for every user. If its not nigger music, it will be ww2 propaganda... You cant win with jewtube. Deal with it.
If youre not on youtube to learn how to do something productive, like change your cars air filter or oil, or properly deal with a rodent infestation, or how to grow specific plants, you shouldnt be there. YOUTUBE IS EVIL. It's the new TV, and its way better than its predecessor at pushing every type of propaganda you can imagine.

Need to be signed in for that, and with my browser, operating system, privacy extensions, youtube no longer allows me to sign in or even create an account.

if they don't know who you are, if they can't track you for what reason they find 'necessary', you wont be allowed to use their shit. And it's not only youtube

privacy extensions

What are you running? I run uBlock Origins, and can still sign in without seeing ads.

[ - ] germ22 [op] 0 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 11:27:20 ago (+0/-0)

I run HTTPS everywhere, Ghostery, uBlock Origin, Video Adblocker, and Disconnect. These where recommended on old VOAT. I've even tried making a new throw away account, but google just wont let me, and it's been years since i was able to sign into my old account.

I don't know what browser you run, but I run Firefox. What I do is create profiles, so that when I go to watch Th3mTube videos, it has it's own Firefox instance, with it's own cache, cookies, history, addons, etc.

What I would do in your situation is set up something similar, either via Firefox profiles or via a completely separate browser install just for Th3mTube, maybe Ungoogled Chromium or something. Then create an account you can sign into, then lock it down step-by-step, and ease off as soon as something breaks.

Yea i might do that. My computer is well due an upgrade, when it comes to that time i'll have to look into either making windows 10 or 11 more private, or give linux another try.

Mr. Beast

I'm tired of seeing that fuckers stupid soy face :-O everytime I open youtube

Sounds like you are not logged in. At the IP level, youtube will still track everything you watch and make suggestions based on it. In this case it sounds like something reset or renewed which caused them to lose track of your "ip based account".

Mr.beast is so gay he makes dylan mulvaney look like john wayne.

I saw he owns a few restaurants. Pissed me off. Is the kid a chef? Has he ever managed a restaurant? Does he even work in them? Also saw his chocolate bars. Does he have a passion for chocolateering or is he cashing in on being a youtuber who just started appearing in everyone’s feed this year?

It's stored on cookies. Why are you all so technically illiterate?

[ - ] Niggly_Puff 0 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 12:24:59 ago (+0/-0)

Nigger I am smarter than you. I'm sure it is stored in cookies. But they track everything on the IP as well. Try using youtube not signed in on one device. Then try it not signed in on a different device. You will see suggestions on the 2nd device based on what you watched the the 1st device.

[ - ] Kozel 2 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 00:25:12 ago (+3/-1)

how can you expect personalized suggestions if you aren't signed in?

[ - ] germ22 [op] 2 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 00:31:38 ago (+2/-0)

Youtube tracks your IP, and with cookies. Never been an issues for many years until yesterday.

[ - ] Kozel 0 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 01:04:31 ago (+2/-2)

They track over 250 points of information but they do not personalize suggestions for non logged in users. They could. But they don't.

[ - ] HamsaOfDeath 2 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 09:29:58 ago (+2/-0)

Yes, they do.

Are you retarded?

[ - ] germ22 [op] 0 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 13:04:40 ago (+0/-0)

They did, until a few days ago. Hence the point of this entire post.

Nothing has changed about my accountless jewtube recommends.

[ - ] Nosferatjew 2 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 01:37:14 ago (+2/-0)

Been like this for a long time. Flag stuff you don't want to see as "not interested" or "don't recommend this channel", and it will improve, but probably only temporarily.

[ - ] Trope 2 points 1.8 yearsJul 29, 2023 02:10:51 ago (+2/-0)

I noticed it changed about a week ago. very different videos being suggested.
