Why did RUclips recommend this video from a channel I’m subscribed to? Are they stupid?
Is there a lore reason?

RUclips fell off😢

THE ASLUME IS INESCAPABLE
How I actually watch RUclips is by putting an unwatchable amount of videos into my watch later list.
The limit is 5000, just for the record. Have fun!
@@INNERLMNT ооооооооооо
mine has 2.3k yet i haven't watched majority of them
I had more than 3k videos on watch later and last year I made it my goal to clear it up. Today that list only has 15 videos
@@INNERLMNT Oh....
Oh no
Well Im at 3000, and let me tell you, I have deleted videos from it before but that s tedious as all hell.
My biggest trigger is the same 5 videos reappearing on my home screen no matter how long I ignore them
Not Interested.... Not Interested... Do Not Recommend Channel.... NOT EFFING INTERESTED!!!! (Oh! They're really interacting with that video! Better keep it on the Home Page!)
Wow, we have been trying to get this guy to watch this video for _months_ and he still hasn't clicked on it. Must mean he's _really_ exited to watch it and is saving it for later
And then feeling guilty about clicking not interested because you know RUclips is going to screw that channel over if even a couple of people do that.
Mine is those same damned channels that spam community posts and are immune to the "do not recommend posts from this channel" button. One time I got the same post in my recommendations FOUR TIMES IN A ROW, despite clicking Not Interested and DNR. It's rather irritating when the button does not do what the button says 😡
Jesus christ dude me too 😢
"I mean, I love typing something on the search bar and finding nothing of the video I actually wanted and, after scrolling a bit down, RUclips starts giving me gross suggestions! It tests my courage and I guess I never actually wanted to watch the video I searched for :3"
oh yay let's watch some videos about videogames
"did you mean VIDEOGAMES WOKE BAD NO GOOD NO"

I assume this is how people watch RUclips, I’ve never used the platform personally
Yeah YT sucks big time
Only losers names something like @[insert name] do so definitely not me
I stopped writing comments years ago. They exclusively written by opinionated and judgemental idiots who actually say nothing constructive.
Who in this day and age watch YT wtf
Neither do the people running RUclips
Don't forget the indescribable joy I feel when it's time to watch an ad and pay close attention to the product on offer instead of zoning out and watching a number go from 5 to 1.
I turn down the volume, put down my phone and wait exactly 5 seconds.
@@matiasgarciacasas558So nice of RUclips to give us a few seconds to rest our eyes between videos!

@@matiasgarciacasas558 Is that to avoid the ads, or an anger control method... or both? ;)

No. Never. Not once.

"You watched a 4 hour video about the Star Wars Hotel, do you want to watch a 30 minute video on the same topic?"
No thanks, I think I got it though
RUclips has sent me several warnings for watching your content. These warning include: “This content includes unfounded conspiracies” and “Man Carrying Thing is listed as a traitor to your country”
oh
Yeah I got one on this very video, it said "WARNING: ManCarryingThing is wanted for war crimes in Canada, Mexico, the United States, Guatemala, Cuba, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, and New Zealand. If you have any information on his whereabouts, share it with your local federal police department."
😂
I got "The contents of this video have been classified as a cognitohazard and we can not guarantee the safety of those who have perceived them by any of the five senses". Strange.
Man Carrying Wrongthink
You missed the part where we patiently and happily watch the unskippable 15 second ads before a 7 second video.
edit: I do have an adblocker. Anyone who doesn't use one is willfully polluting their brains.
i think every 30 second video should have 10 minutes of ads. for reasons..
A few weeks ago I was getting like. 2 minute unskippable ads or something getting through ublock and I was like "what on earth is going on, is this how they expect me to watch YT? Yeah, I might as well watch on a phone or never watch RUclips ever"
@@ManCarryingThing Gives you time to start your edging streak before the video begins.
I always find it funny when people complain about ads when I haven't watched an ad in maybe 5 years
Get RUclips revanced to get ad block on your phone
dont forget when you search something it just pulls up your watch history asking to “watch it again” rather than provide real results
It's so messed up how they just destroyed search one day. It's not like it just broke and they didn't fix it. They literally destroyed it and acted like nothing happened. And you can still search youtube with google so there's not even a point to it.
The search was so damn good at some point, I would discover so many content creators that I still watch to this day or at least have been interested in awhile. Now I can’t get ANYTHING I actually want, let alone discovering someone worthwhile
i love getting recommended the same things i keep deliberately not watching because i don’t want to watch them and youtube thinking ah. you need to just be recommended them AGAIN!
Click on the three dots and then "Don't recommend this to me" 👍
@@keyburri3095 it immediately comes back
@@uncroppedsoopno it won’t
@@dylanb2990 I didn't say will. I said it _does._ lucky you if your experience is different
@@uncroppedsoop alright I’ll rephrase, no it doesn’t. (Lmao at liking your own comments)
I love mindlessly scrolling through thousands and thousands of shorts for hours on end, letting time go by and wasting my youth on useless content specifically designed to make me ignore my real life responsibilities and making me depressed as I watch more successful people through a screen in my poorly lit room... Thanks RUclips!
so at the end we all just pull the trigger..
The best part is that self awareness just makes it worse!
I know you're joking but we all suffer from this to one extent or another. It's the blessing and the curse of living in the distraction age we do.
Don't worry you'll push through it. Worst case scenario, adhd supports can help.
I have a strict policy - I never watch 2 shorts in a row. If I click a short - I watch it, go back to long form content.
There are extensions (like News Feed Eradicator, for instance) out there for blocking certain parts of youtube, such as the recommendations sidebar. Would highly recommend looking into that if you're genuinely struggling.
Good thing that watching shorts pop up in your feed doesn’t actually play them in the order you see their thumbnails, but it also gives you content from people you aren’t subscribed to and don’t even like watching! Genius algorithms!
My favorite thing RUclips does is when I listen to a song, and instead of more songs from that artist or genre, they recommend thirty different identical uploads of that same song. Since I liked it so much I might want to listen to it again.
Hahahaha
When I like a song it recommends nothing similar on my RUclips music, it just puts a song I haven’t listened to in a year or so in my offline mix lmao
I can remember a time where RUclips music was actually good for discovering music through algorithmic recommendations. 😢
@@luipaardprint Using the offline mix, it actually isn’t that bad
To be fair, I probably do want to listen to it again.
Remembering that the trending page exists dulls each and every one of my emotions
Gotta love how, after watching your angry birds/bad piggies videos, I can perfectly imagine you reading this out loud
I have known people for YEARS in the van dwelling community, building out their vans even sometimes in a forest with cordless tools. Some have a few thousand subs like under 10 thousand. And this black girl who had contacts I assume, 3 videos in a row in trending. She had over 3 MILLION subs and 3 videos TOTAL for being on RUclips 3 or 4 days, and never built ANYTHING on her van. And likely wouldn't know how. Incredibly unfair to the dedicated channels that have been around for YEARS.
I always forget, but someone has to remind me... I've rarely found anything that was 'trending' interesting (and not just on youtube).
I used to like it 5-7 years ago, but now i don't open at all.
I forgot that tab still exists unless you accidentally log out tbh
Man Carrying Thing invented RUclips shorts in the 1990s, but we can’t talk about that here.
Shorts are just the tv ads lookalike where creator is the production.
Forgot to mention how RUclips put the post video the biggest button on the Home Screen
As if most people who use this site ever post
I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE THAT FUCKING BUTTON
It is so weird. Also, people who DO post to RUclips rarely do so from the app. Such a useless button
There's a post button on the home screen? No seriously, I'm looking at the home screen on another tab on my laptop and I don't see it? You sure you just don't have your format configured to include it? Is that a mobile thing? Is it a creator thing that shows up once you do post something? Now I'm curious...
@@one_smol_duck Ah, should have read the replies... so it's only on the mobile app, not regular RUclips...
@@darkwyve it’s a mobile/app thing
To be fair I don’t go to instagram and TikTok so I appreciate reposts of good content from there

"Oh you don't want to watch this recommended video?
Well, I will just keep recommending it *UNTIL YOU WATCH IT* "
For our latest iteration of RUclips, we've included _Clockwork Orange_ style eye-clips, just in case you dared to skip one of our recommended videos!
Because we care. Soooo much!
I love the Shorts tab! It's definitely something necessary to the site and NOT something I have always clicked on accidentally!
RUclips: "hey i noticed you watched markiplier, wanna watch a man losing his life"
"You watched this video of One Topic At A Time playing Elden Ring, so maybe you'd enjoy this video of some other random guy playing Elden Ring, while he explains how space and the Holocaust aren't real.
"We won't restrict this video or demonetize it for misinformation or hate speech, but we will add a little Wikipedia blurb under the video about how this guy is wrong; that should be sufficient.
"Now, this other One Topic video is about LGBT+ memes, so of course we demonetized and age-restricted it."
"I know I watched that 4 hour deep dive video yesterday, but I'm totally down to watch it again today and every day after for the rest of my life."
It's always neat when I open RUclips without being signed in and instead it looks like I opened Hulu.
I’m gonna subscribe to Man and watch 45 hours of his unrelated, long form content.
"Hide shorts for RUclips" is almost as important to me as having an adblocker
fr using an ad blocker to specifically block shorts from my feed improved my mental health a lot
@@alexrogers777I didn’t know this was even possible! That would be extremely helpful for me. How did you do it?
@@alexrogers777 yes please tell us how!
I blocked shorts for my little brother's phone, now I can sleep peacfully
@@flamergacha how'd you do it?
As a watcher of RUclips, I love being recommended the reactions to things I want to watch and not the thing I want to watch.
Right? Because I totally care about some stranger's reaction to the thing I want to watch more than my own.
Man has to be careful, RUclips might not be happy with him for revealing their secrets
Also, RUclips thinks I really want to watch some other random Short when, on desktop, I scroll the mouse wheel in a vain attempt to scroll the comments on a Short. RUclips, I'd literally pay you to turn that "feature" off. I have to keep going to my history to expunge whatever random Short I suddenly started watching, lest you recommend 50 more Shorts from whoever the hell made that random Short.
they won't even let me pay to get rid of the goddamn Shorts tab entirely. RUclips/10.
There’s a browser plugin that changes the url from /shorts/ to /watch/ so that shorts will act like regular videos

Man carrying RUclips itself
@@haveaniceday2439 bot
the fact that i have to go to google to search for a youtube video is telling
Immediately before this video, I got a 20 unskippable ad, followed by a survey about the ad quality... really added to the experience
I hope RUclips knows we have never and will never actually go into our “watch later” playlist.
I mean, sometimes I do but only to scroll all the way down and marvel at what I apparently thought was interesting seven years ago.
I occasionally do 😂
Almost never these days tho
I do. I hit randomize and see if I pull up something good to listen to while I do something else.
I use that :-)
I use that all the time
When I find a creator I like I don‘t immediately subscribe to their channel, but I binge watch until I am fed up and don’t need to subscribe anymore
to be completely honest i havent even clicked on my subscriptions tab in years, it got too cluttered so now i just type in a channel name directly and go from there. i mean if i cant remember a channel name then i probably dont care about their videos. lucky that man carrying thing shows up on my front page...
I do find it silly though when some people complain they don't get their subscriptions on their home page when there's a dedicated tab for it. But it's fine to not use it though. But that's where the latest videos from creators go.
They do have the option on mobile to press on a specific creator and see their latest uploads, you might like that.
And you can Unsubscribe from the channels you don't watch on the Subscirbtion tab itself as well so you are still a tiny bit silly for not using 😂
But a tiny bit
Like the amount of times I have looked at channels in my Subscriptions and audibly went, "WHO are you and why are you a waste of space?", and then unsubbed immediately 😂
Or even, "Idgaf about you now so UNSUB"
Gives a cathartic feeling, 10/10 would recommend
i also just think it's healthier for me this way, dont wanna waste my time with hours of videos i'm only kinda interested in
My favorite is taking the time to select ‘not interested’ on every single recommendation on a major topic to only be fed that topic content relentlessly for days.
0:40 even the camera is shaking its head no.
I don't even remember the last time I looked at the trending tab, since the stuff I watch is rarely trending
0:04 I used to randomly change country in YT settings and see what’s trending where. Most couldn’t understand anything, but it was fun to do that sometimes
I love when i search on youtube and it gives me videos on my watch later
Every time I accidentally click on the trending tab I have heart palpitations.
Shit's scary.
just watched the movie network for the first time yesterday. while watching it I realized the internet itself is just one big crazy television network that anyone can join in on.
good movie
The "YOU HAVE MEDDLED WITH THE PRIMAL FORCES OF NATURE" monologue is likely the speech that all these tech moguls hear when they contemplate not censoring content at the behest of the current politician.
And if you haven't already seen it, you need to watch Spike Lee's film _Bamboozled._ It's like _The Producers,_ meets _Network,_ meets _The Chapelle Show._ Not at all safe for work, but like _Network,_ it's almost prophetic in its depiction of the downward spiral of television (or these days, online) programming.
Man Carrying the Pain of Unrequited Affection
Man Carrying Thing confessing his love to Man Carrying Thing and getting shot down like that is heartbreaking
I love manually finding shows I watch weekly instead of having them served up to my homepage. Thanks RUclips!
I love rewatching the same 2 minute video again and again. I'm glad RUclips recommends me that.
I subscribed to so many people, that I figured out that the limit to subscriptions is 2000.
I keep having to unsubscribe to people to get other subscriptions.
For me most stuttering is the limit on liked videos. I keep finding old videos that i liked not liked.
@@bitnev True. My liked playlist is always sitting at 5000, I basically like every video I watch.
@@koolaid33 I am not, but I am here every day like since 2010.
You can only have about 250 playlists too. Well.... they still exist, they just drop off the bottom, of the list so you can't see them. I keep having to delete old ones to make room for new ones.
Despite spending like 4-5 hours a day on youtube for the last 4 years, im only subscribed to about 12 channels. I dont know why but i just never subscribe unless i absolutely adore the youtuber. I also very rarely thumbs up videos
I watched this video in 2 times speed, because I value my time as a human being. I will use this time to watch even shorter short form content than this terrifying 47 seconds of mockery upon the Developers and RUclips staff.
Wait a minute… should I unsubscribe from Man so that I get more of his videos recommended? (Awaiting man’s answer)
Yes
I'm man, i say no
Or you keep being subscribed and press the button where you see all videos from the ones you've subscribed to and nothing else.
@@LiggliluffExactly it drives me crazy how people ignore my boy the Subscription Tab
I personally love watching the same video I just watched, or even better the video that I have been listing as "not interested" being recommended to me for the fifth time today.
Are you... suuuuuuure you're not interested???
I ADORE the subtle tripod kick after the line "Network TV is undeniably better than most things on RUclips"
me clicking "Don't recommend channel" on a channel I subscribe to
I love being shown videos by creators I really like once a year just to be reminded that I forgot about them because RUclips only shows their videos to me once a year.

Man Carrying Out of Touch Executives
I ended up on that WEIRD part of RUclips again that isn't the Trending tab
I love never being recommended anything I'd actually find interesting or related to anything I've enjoyed watching previously and instead get fed dry boring corporate content instead, and the only time an interesting video appears in the recommended section is when it's suggesting a video I've already watched, great!

Guys, I swear. Clean your subscription feed. It's like therapy.
my favourite part is when you watch one video on a topic and then youtube makes your entire recommended feed about that topic 🙃

This is the first video in ages where I haven't had to watch two long unskippable ads
I love you, tube, man carrying my heart
I suddenly want to watch the things I binge-watched in 2018 all over again
I didn’t know there was a trending tab 😭🙏
The few times I've accidentally tabbed into it, it has consisted of newly released music, absolute brainrot, excerpts of TV news, and (rarely) something actually interesting from a creator who uploads one amazing video every three months.
Sometimes I have to go search manually through my subscriptions to find out if my favorites have posted
this is my favorite short form wheel of time youtuber
RUclips thinks i love old 45 seconds from 2012 and before
He never misses! The absolute legend!
I love how youtube always knows when my tastes change, and instead of recommending videos I normally want to watch related to the hours of content I arleady watched, they pivot immediately to recommending me videos only related to this one 30 second video someone linked me to once. Great job youtube!

How wholesome
It takes 10 seconds of watching a video to see that it is terrible so RUclips concludes that since I watched it I want to see another 50 of them suggested.
I'm probably one of the few people who still refuses to watch RUclips on my phone. A small-ass screen and having to hold it? No thank you

i also love how the search function only ever shows 4 videos related to the thing i looked up
I love searching videos and seeing results completely unrelated to what I searched
I love getting notifications on my phone about clickbait photoshop thumbnail "movie trailers" by fake youtube channels, that say official trailer in the title and way past the displayed character limit say (fan trailer) so they cant be removed. I wish I got more notifications of them, and I can't wait for there to be even more of these things to watch with ai pumping out videos. What a magical time to be on this great website!
I have never seen this channel before, and I was recommended this video. Gonna subscribe cuz the rest of the catalogue is similar to others channels I find entertaining. I like comedic parody sketches; they are one of the types of RUclips videos I watch.
I love searching channels by name and getting two videos before it completely switches over to the least related thing possible, especially when its not related to anything i have ever watched on my account
