The worst is that if you're someone who enjoys multiple niche things and who also interacts with the algorithm (like - dislike - not interested) your account gets marked as content discovery vanguard and it will endlessly feed you videos with <1000 views just so they can get more feelers on if the content is actually good.

Even if you consistently "not interested", the algorithm never ever figures out the overlapping theme is that you (generally) don't like low view count low subscriber count content.

As a fellow uThermal enjoyer, I have to admit the algorithm knew enough to suggest him to me if I was watching battlecruiser cheese.

I just wish they'd recognize that the fifty-first time I don't watch a video they should find something else to show me.

I find it painfully overfits time of day. I get the same investment themed videos late at night on autoplay.

Isn't your first parapraph an example of YouTube's algorithm underfitting though?
