Thanks for the link. I don't like videos tagged as "made for children" because videos tagged that way aren't able to be put in a playlist or "watch later" queue

Thanks for the link. I don't like videos tagged as "made for children" because videos tagged that way aren't able to be put in a playlist or "watch later" queues. That's a YouTube thing, but YouTube doesn't provide any additional views or promotion to have it tagged that way for educational videos like this. In fact, it likely will get less.

Yes, it's unfortunate. I guess makers assume 'made for children' is the same as suitable for children. And so 'not made for' means unsuitable. Youtube should add some explanatory text around this question when publishing.

That's a YouTube thing, but YouTube doesn't provide any additional views or promotion to have it tagged that way for educational videos like this. Could this be YouTube trying to do something about toddlers getting hooked on videos, and then rabbit-holed into ever more non-child-safe stuff by the algorithm? There's been a bit of an "Internet Panic" about that recently. Or is this on the contrary (part of) the reason for the problem?
