As a hypothetical, lets say I watch:

2000 off road videos

1000 track related videos

10 camera related videos

Youtube recommends:

12 camera related videos

3 off road related videos

4 track related videos

5 videos of something stupid I have zero interest in.

Someone shares a link with me with a title like "you have to see this, this is amazing!" and its some stupid person falling on ice that I don't even watch all the way through. Youtube now recommends:

18 people falling or getting hurt

2 off road videos

3 videos of something stupid I have zero interest in

1 camera video.

I thought Google was supposed to have a good search algorithm! Seriously, It wont find what it knows I want to watch, but will happily fill up my recommends based on 1 video I didn't even enjoy. Seriously Youtube

Mine keeps recommending PewDiePie. I have standards. I will never watch that filth.

I don't even watch any video game things aside from "GTA Bloopers Glitches and Silly Stuff" which is like a once-every-three-months thing.
