Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership
Decq@lemmy.world 1 month agoI’m mixed on this. If the algorithm is known, big channels would just game it. They still will figure it out now and game, but it might take a bit longer. Just like these days most of timef the top 20 results with Google are completely useless nowadays because it’s either AI slop or pure marketing.

This is where personalization comes in, if everybody can tune the algorithm to their liking with sufficient individuality, then algorithm gamers have a much more diffuse target. Also, if you’re getting targeted by abusers you don’t want to see, you can already filter that to some degree but it should be made even easier to “turn down the volume” on abusive groups. Abusive being in the opinion of the abused.
