I know someone is going to make it sound easier than what it really is, but having to sift through the site, fighting against the algorithm's sorting to find something you like is hard.

This has been me since... sometime in 2019, I believe. At some point around then, there was a very noticeable change in the videos being suggested to me. I noticed it almost immediately.
