YT algorithm seems to do alright by me, I'd say for me personally it recommends videos that I have at least a passing interest in about 80% of the time. The other 20 is like old car videos (Seriously I'm the furthest from a "car guy", I'm not a fuckcars member either, but my interest in the non-tech side of cars is non existent other than "tiny explosions make car go") and just generally uninteresting stuff.

What it doesn't do is recommend any right wing crap so ig I got that going for me

Now Twitter otoh, it's like non stop right wing bullshit and very little interesting stuff. Which btw wasn't like that before the Elon takeover, my interaction with Twitter before and after is about the same (very little) so the recommendation algorithm shifted completely on its own after his takeover.....
