I block every channel that puts an arrow or stupid face in the thumbnail.

The list is getting incredibly long...

Preach. I used to be bombarded with things that were actually interesting and now it's just "i bought thing and here's why it's good/bad" [22:47]. I'm sure other people also get constant right wing propaganda but I have the Hbomb censorship add-on and never see that shit. The only thing I really look forward to on YouTube anymore is DankPods killing cars by putting unholy fluids in them.

Yeah this reads like a list of whos who to block in 2012. Now there's a thousand "podcasts" and AI channels to block, the list would be thousands long to actually filter our the reactionary slop

Also what did Cult of Dusty do? I know he was a nu-atheist but I thought he came out on the radlib/progressive side of the schism? Maybe I'm not up to date on my 15 year old youtube lore. I think he did a pivot to breadtube. Obviously an annoying radlib, but not really on par with a lot of these straight up reactionaries unless I'm missing something

7 year old thread from 2018 talking about him lol, proves how out of date this list is.

Damn thunderf00t is there? I havent seen him in years, I just remember watching some space sience and global warming videos from him and they were decent for my teenager mind

[–] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago

Yeah, though it apparently hasn't been updated in a long time. Maybe I just trained my algorithm to stop showing me any right wing filth.

Watch all of half hour hegel while having lunch. You'll have content for months of lunch.

Yo, pick one of the following themes and I'll hit you with something: weird, creative, music, dealer's choice

Well good news, Eddy Burback has a need vid out

[–] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I recently turned on notifications for a bunch of channels I was subbed to, but don't upload often. Now I have a slow stream of usually good videos in my notifications and I don't miss stuff from those channels. Since doing this I think my algorithm has started giving me better stuff too tbh

[–] KobaCumTribute@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I usually just watch whatever trackmania video wirtual posted to his low effort slop channel that day. He's neutral and inoffensive enough to be watchable and there's no reason to pay attention to the funny car game, and I don't have to commit to watching the rest of it when I'm done eating because it's completely empty bullshit that's just a sort of neat spectacle to watch when busy with something else. Dude's brain is like 97% trackmania mechanics knowledge, 2% Ancient Egypt trivia, and 1% chess and absolutely nothing else. He's also a completely sexless dork in an apparently stable relationship with a woman who is both clearly smarter than him and also AFAIK older than him, so it's a sort of safe bet he's not doing the streamer crime, and the closest thing to a scandal I've heard about him was an alleged ESL mistake moment from years ago where he confused the English words "racer" and "racist" when trying to play with words.

[–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 4 points 3 months ago

I read "neutral and inoffensive" and was going to crack a joke about the racist thing only to see you beat me to it.

I second that he's mindless and fine if you want something just on.

[–] 9to5@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago

I mostly watch cooking or food / restaurant vids while eating.

It has a certain vibe to watch someone eat a 18 course dinner while I sit in my underwear eating 50 cent ramen.

[–] RheumatoidArthritis@mander.xyz 4 points 3 months ago

There's plenty of good shit if you're into "Sign in to confirm that you're not a bot"

[–] Lurkerino@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago

I have all the channels I see on subscriptions and never touch any recomended to me or home so to me its fine

[–] AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 3 months ago

Mr. Nightmare and Chilling Scares have plenty of interesting videos that I listen to as I eat.

If you like robots fighting go watch the backlog of NHRL content including what they have on brettzone. It's cute and silly and fun and surprisingly queer which is also a nice bonus
