"Almost all restaurant meals are mid and overpriced, buying groceries is literally the rich robbing everyone else, movie tickets are ridic and current movies aren't even well written, shopping is buying overpriced clothes made of plastic, formerly low-middle class activities like bowling jacked up th"
"Youtube: Mr. Beast - Euthanizing 500,000 Stray Dogs in One Day! :O"
"A whole generation of foreigners is being taught english by Reddit and YouTube and noone is talking about this. If you met one in real life, you can usually tell from how idiomatic their speech is, their strange intonation and cadence (YouTube voice) and the inappropriate swearing. They also tend to"
"Meanwhile, I'm here, still checking X and watching YouTube slop at 3am."
"I watched a docuseries called 'Hardcore' by a great channel called Magic Lantern on YouTube."
"Used to be you could look up Gregorian chants on YouTube and get a nice hour long video with a pretty nature video and ambient nature sounds laid over the back, all the comments were old people going 'So beautiful. God bless you ❤️', vibes were sweet and holy."
""Who's listening in 2024?" "I can't be the only one listening to this in 2024." "They don't make music like this anymore""
"I had a private playlist on youtube that I used to catalogue funny and unique videos so I wouldn't have to look for them. A stupid thing but it was fun until out of the blue I get a notification that it was removed for breaking some vague community guideline???"
"I had a dumb parody channel where I would react to music videos pretending people requested them. I would always pause the video a few seconds in and then blabber for like 25 minutes... This was back when YouTube showed you the downvotes and every single video I had was ratioed heavily."
"I go on YouTube and I get ads showing someone's disgusting foot fungus, Kevin hart or snoop dogg telling you it's easy to gamble just straight off your phone, some anime bitch with big tits advertising a children's game, or a buff 60 year old Chinese man who is clearly AI generated doing tai chi on "
"I was looking for a crimping tool last week and searched for reviews on youtube. every single result was ai voiceover shat out by a bot farm, so I just ended up ordering the cheapest chinese one off amazon... Today a video shows up in my recommend feed with a british autist ranking all the crimping "
"Been seeing a lot of these types of YouTube channels, where they set up a Chris Hansen type honeypot but then catch the guy in a public place to shame them. They're always really profit and brand driven, one even sells full clips of the confrontations on Patreon."
"the youtube search function for quite a while now has been completely unusable. I search something and it shows me maybe two relevant results and then some bullshit completely unrelated 'people also watched' or 'you might also like' content."
"Now let's compare that to what you have access to in 2025 (don't nitpick these, you know exactly what I mean): Every movie ever made, on demand, on a fuckhuge HDTV; Every TV show ever made, on demand, on a fuckhuge HDTV; Every piece of music ever recorded by anyone, anywhere in the world, on demand;"
"institutions of art have failed this generation, and relegated them to begging for NordVPN sponsorships to fund their passion projects."

"This is the pointless drivel you're presented with when you open YT without an account. This is what the vast majority of people consume for hours lol"
"My dad is a 72 year old white American whose favorite terms, historically, have been "kill a commie" and "drill baby drill". Newt Gingrich and Michael Savage blasting in the car, wives are second in command to husbands, that whole thing. Then he gets a smart phone and starts watching YouTube 24/7. N"
"How the hell is BetterHelp STILL advertised on YouTube"
"It's like why the hell should I be watching "Homer Simpson: Character Introspection" which is 3 hours long and in the thumbnail it has in bright red letters "The perfect fat man" Everything's so exaggerated and consumerist. They want you to watch 2 minutes of ads then watch 50 minutes of an Among Us"
"iPhone, iPod, GPS, PlayStation 3, youtube, LCD Television, Blu-rays, Wikipedia"
"Same for a quick sojourn to Twitter and YouTube to check in on the old accounts I used to find entertaining. I realize now this is how I felt all the time, for years. Disgusting."
"Later that night I'm cruising youtube and a frog and toad video gets recommended."

"Somehow, suspiciously, Mike Israetel and his goons, much like a bullet from an IDF soldiers rifle, shot to the top of the YouTube's algorithm, and took over the entire space, like was some Arab olive farm."
"Thinking back to the early days of YouTube, etc - it was embarrassing to be on the internet 24/7. People who did were friendless, socially-maladjusted losers. The videos were low budget and relateable. But it was exciting and anonymous, and felt a lot bigger."
"It seems that several years ago the algorithms for suggested videos on youtube and song recommendations on spotify were actually useful for discovering stuff based on your taste. Yet now something like spotify only suggests songs that you're already familiar with and youtube gives the same videos on"

"He acted like he didn't recognize me considering the coded messages he sends me through those YT clips."
"Studies are now showing that zoomers are more likely to look something up using TikTok than Google. I would guess that 'look it up on YouTube' is also more common for this generation than Google."
"After lunch, one of the boys came up to me and asked if I knew how to 'talk to girls'. When I asked how he even got the idea of 'approaching' girls, he said he saw it on YouTube..."
"The answers are nearly always some combination of video games, Netflix, YouTube, TikTok, masterbation, sleeping and eating. I would really like to believe that this is selective and most redditors are just kind of losers but I have been noticing since the pandemic that nearly everyone just turns the"

"Nothing interesting on any site. Even the 'edgy' sites are all the same recycled trash that wouldn't amuse anybody over the age of 20. Youtube algorithm is horrible as well"
"Do people even interact with people online outside of discord servers anymore? Where do young people go online even? Are kids just all on YouTube?"

"It's all they do these days. Literally watch YouTube and Facebook videos about it, talk to their other boomer friends about it."
"Watch two (2) hours of uncensored dick riding live on YouTube."

"Tiktok all the time or Youtube seems to be their main hobby. The jocks type do not play any collective sports anymore (football or Rugby), they either do body-building + Muay-Thai or 'have a youtube/twitch channel'."
"Can't even search how to clean hard water deposits from a toilet without being bombarded by red arrows, the ONE TRICK you need to know, and EPIC toilet cleaning videos in the search results."
"Whenever I get on youtube to watch the new redlettermedia vid or whatever, I see the recommendations and they are all some idiot's idiot face making some ridiculous expression, or with a giant red arrow pointing to something with a big question mark and clickbait title."
"I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WATCH A 2 MINUTE ADVERTISEMENT FOR A 30 SECOND CLIP."
"Once upon a time I could always rely on opening up YouTube and there would always be something to watch. Now I open it up and I'm constantly being recommended the same stuff over and over again. It's like the algorithm isn't even trying anymore. There's a wealth of content on YouTube but that conten"
