Ah yeah I’ve heard it can send you into a spiral if you aren’t careful. I get pop ups from time to time but I think the algorithm knows exactly what I like now. I mainly get food videos, science, cute animals, gundam, gunpla and crafting, travel, video games, anime and streamers lol. I guess it’s just visual junk food.
Anything political, or news related I avoid and spam the “don’t show me this” button lol. It’s really weird seeing the main page of youtube when you’re not logged in. It’s so different!
Sometimes we just don’t like certain genres. I’ve tried dozens of times to get into rogue likes and I cannot get into them. I enjoyed hades decently enough, and I could get to the boss. But the gameplay loop always gets repetitive for me. It’s weird!
