Regardless of its danger, navigating it is the job of our generation, no less important than the tasks of those that came before.
In my experience, it's about the side content. The quickest way to get to Jordan Peterson is to google a lot of gaming videos. This is just basic demographics and marketing, ever since gamergate. Gamers are often teen boys. Teen boys frequently like bullying people. Gamergate was a bullying campaign.
All there really is to it. Since it worked and increased profits, they kept or reinforced it.
Breaking their market lock is the key step forward imo.
Very much agreed. That's why I started https://lemmy.world/c/jordanpeterson just now. ;)
The algorithm actually targeted me because I am into engineering (Mark Rober videos, smarter everyday, etc)...and youtube LOVES to talk about how great of an engineer mElon is despite his tendency to not even follow basic engineering principles like redundancy.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
Thanks for the heads up!
Good bot.
