    And new creators take their place, if you’re only seeing shit on YouTube it’s because you’re only subscribed to shit.

      Tell me you’re out of touch without telling me you’re out of touch. Most of the good creators only upload once in a blue moon nowadays. The search feature is completely useless. Dislikes have been removed, so you can’t easily filter garbage anymore. Shorts, a toxic form of content, is getting pushed down users’ throats. Their UI is getting worse all the time…

        I have no trouble finding good content and if you don’t use the official app or use it in your browser you can just disable shorts. It’s also not like dislikes ever actually filtered content lmao. You never saw videos with crazy dislike ratios back in the day? Engagement votes are engagement, whether they’re positive or negative.

      Heaps of content creators sold out to advertising interests and degraded their own platform. Not that I blame them really, money always talks

      And new creators take their place, if you’re only seeing shit on YouTube it’s because you’re only subscribed to shit.

      To be fair, a lot of the good ones have moved over to, or always has been on, Nebula. (I’m not getting paid for pitching Nebula, just saying.)

      In essence, you’re both right, to some degree, but not completely.
