YouTube Algorithm

Does anyone else's YouTube feed seem to be screwing up? I'm getting suggestions for videos over a decade old rather than the people I am normally subscribed to, and yes, I am signed in properly. 😒
A little bit.
I’m getting all sorts of suggestions for things my grandson watches. We’re on the same network, but he uses his own device. No reason for you tube to think it’s me watching them.

@nonsensiclesnail I'd understand it if you were on the same device or using the same login info, but the same network shouldn't do that.

They just can't help but fiddle with things until they break 🙄
@Whodunnit I agree that it shouldn’t, but I’m not so sure that it doesn’t.
Really they are likely working on issues that will fix something out there but is now currently messing with things they never intended.

I see the same video line up constantly. Not much variety like there used to be. Frequently, some videos won’t play.

@Carissimi It does make one wonder.

Yes, wonder about the manipulation of what we see, and don’t see. I must remember to visit Rumble more often, but it’s not as user friendly as YT, although there is no censorship. . @Whodunnit

Public utility.
Dumb Americans.
End of reality.
@Roundandroundwego Are you calling YouTube a public utility and in the same breath calling Americans ( as if we are the Borg) dumb?

@Whodunnit You can now choose your channel’s handle.


As a reminder, in most cases, if you already have a personalized URL for your channel, we’ve reserved this for you as your handle. If you’re happy with that handle then you’re all set. If you want a different handle from the one we reserved, you can change it. If you don’t already have a personalized URL today, you’ll also be able to choose a handle. Keep in mind that handles are unique to each channel, so once a handle has been chosen, it can’t be selected by anyone else.

@candycane I found it, it had gone into my spam folder. Thank you for pointing it out 🤗
