I’m a millenial and I write exessively researched comments backed by papers on youtube whenever I see stupid BS takes. Even under shorts. Glad those get more traction.
Comment on Lemmy Comments for YouTube is now available!
Khrux@ttrpg.network 11 months agoYouTube became weirdly positive and fake a while ago, I actually think the mega cesspit of YouTube comments hasn’t been reality for a few years now.
I can’t tell if that’s because the Gen Z online communication style is to celebrate everything, which is nice, or because there’s an algorithm in place somewhere to make the comments more marketable, which is lame.

The latter. Creator still complain about comments because they see all the negative ones. YT just does sentiment analysis on them all and hides anything critical.
