I had never even heard of this, and I've watched dozens and dozens of episodes of Spacetime! I'm shocked YouTube didn't steer me to this sister channel. Thank

- dylan604 4y agoAre you suggesting that the YT recommendation algorithm is some how flawed? I hope you're doing that on a throwaway account ;P
- frogpelt 4y agoIs it possible that it doesn’t serve YTs interests to have a recommendation engine that works best for the end user? I honestly think they just experiment with it a lot. The variety of videos that are recommended for me don’t seem to follow a pattern. Maybe they know my brain better than I do.

The variety of videos that are recommended for me don’t seem to follow a pattern. Possibly, but I'd posit that it's not a good system if the experiment is causing a lack of consistency. I'm sure there's a lot of people that would opt-in for a exeperimental reco system if just asked. > Maybe they know my brain better than I do. Now you're just being silly.
- bowsamic 4y agoIs this a jab at dang?
- dylan604 4y agodang was not a thought in my mind when I replied, so if there's any inference to dang by you in my comment, it is solely within your reading of the comment. however, out of curiosity, what in my comment makes you think that?
- shepardrtc 4y agoThey said YT, not YC.
- dylan604 4y agoThis makes even more sense at the confusion.
- joshbaptiste 4y agoIt's not recommended because it hasn't been updated in years.. the algorithm promotes channels with updated content higher
