YouTube recommendations are getting EXTREMELY aggressive

Just asked a friend, he's getting the same exact videos recommended, never actually watched any.

I did the same and had the same trouble as you described. Same shit happened every time I watch a video about WW2. It is really annoying because nothing helps.

Yeah gotta love youtube, watch 1 compilation of something and you get flooded with more. And a lot of times it just shows random crap from random people that have videos I don't find interesting. But sometimes it really works and shows stuff i'd watch. What really annoys me is the notifications not working half the time and missing videos.

It really differs on uses. If you watch anything including news or studies it really favors those into your feed. But I don't get recommended many car videos though that's all I watch. It likes to recommend things you've only watched a little, too.

Watching John Oliver? Lol why would you torture yourself. That guy is the definition of a know it all twat who actually knows nothing.

 

id rather stare at the ground than hear his trash opinions.

i have no idea whats going on with it lately its weird.. i get stuff not even related to anything i watch either and if i do its not even in english so many computer stuff shows up in other things and im kinda like.. i thought this would at least show me things my area language is unless i chose to locate other things. maybe this is normal who knows but i find it annoying whats worse lately shoving the paid stuff in my recommendations and its like.. go away i don't care nor do i have money for something i wouldn't be interested in anyway no matter how much i remove it, it always comes back 2x as worse later.
