What irks me most is the kids content. That should have been a separate site altogether and it's ridiculous that 'non-kids' content gets more strictly regulated for fear they might hear a swear word. Especially considering how much weird shit gets pushed at kids intentionally that youtube doesn't appear to care about (looking at you elsa-gate).
Memes
Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Elsa gate is why stuff gets restricted so aggressively nowadays.
What is Elsa gate?
You can go too deep on this one and find people who probably think it's a conspiracy or something lol, but the gist is that YouTube used to recommend very very odd videos to kids. People picked up on this and made odd videos. It became like a feedback loop I guess. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elsagate I just found the Wikipedia article and I think it does a good job of giving facts about it.
Edit: What I mean by think it is a conspiracy is that you might find people who think it was some sort of orchestrated act to influence children. This was around the time of the pizza gate stuff for contex. I phrased that poorly. I meant people probably have conspiracy theories about the why part of it happening, but it was actually a thing that happened.
Used to recommend?
They are still super weird recommendations for kods. We had to take tablet away from my daughter because allowed shows like sheriff labradore are about constant kidnappings, other shows like about children dying from hunger in the woods and other ones I've seen about giving birth. All observed just this year.
I also didnt like English language muslim religious show that automatically popped up. Like wth bruh
Youtube has been recommending me some videos with small amounts of views lately so that might have changed something with the algorithm
The YouTube kids app is so incredibly useless in order to comply with government regulations that all our kids use our accounts. Which also sucks.
How do you monitor your kids online? 😥 /genq
@P4ulin_Kbana I'm a good parent. The kids are with us all the time, if they were doing something they weren't supposed to I'd know. Honestly, I tink I'd rather they be doing something nuferious than watching annoying kids videos, alas they prefer to watch the later too often watching other kids play scream and play with toys that we already bought that they never play with.
No demonetisation? The REAL old YouTube didn't have monetization to begin with!
I wish we had YouTube alternatives other than just political ones (rumble)
