Yeah, I don't really watch any of this clickbqit content, but I have seen a massive decline of videos by channels I subscribe, and overall less quality videos, but typically if I find one, it is much better than what was available in earlier days of YouTube.

At that point i think it's the best to just move to an alternative service, because sometimes it's annoying to filter good videos from shitty clickbaity ones, and it feels that nowadays YouTube doesn't even care anymore about your preference of good quality content. Why even recommend me videos that I'd never watch? What kind of weird scheme is that?

Now that you mention it, yeah, their algorithms are shit as well. You can literally see it in action as you search for something and then it just adds whatever that is to the top of your 'list-o-crap' and then you get bombarded by suggestions until you click on something else with another keyword. I went in last night to look, and all of the suggestions were videos I had already watched or scrolled past before. I had such high hopes for the internet back in the 90's. Sigh...
