I don't spend a lot of time on there, so some of the "new to me" stuff is probably fairly old.
But, I hopped on this weekend searching for videos on a specific topic and I was inundated with "Shorts". Brief clips that from what I gather contain no valuable information and which require you to be on crack or meth to keep up with? I dunno?
Then I noticed that an old account I used to watch way back in the day showed up on my subscriptions page, so I clicked in to look at that, and now they have accounts or videos that you have to pay to watch/subscribe to? Is this OnlyFans without the sex stuff now?
Then to top it off, the close captions are apparently 100% AI and every sentence displayed is something like "Gum potion trial and barrier for job put chin". Like I thought this stuff was supposed to be intelligent, it's basically right there in the name, or am I missing something?
