SmittenCake Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 Is anyone else getting recommendation videos like this? meanwhile, these are actually videos I have open on my tabs: Youtube also does sometimes recommend I watch Alt.Right garbage or stupid podcasts by ignorant men but I immediately report those channels so they don't come up on my feed. SC for example: cant complain. better than being told i should watch Steven Crowder or some trash 1
Big Bad Wolf Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 You're being tracked across all platforms and web searches. That's why and how YouTube knows to market this type of content to you. 3
Joyride Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 it's because you're being tracked across all sites, fix your settings

The US is a surveillance nation. Everything we do is being tracked. Even making these posts right now. Aside from that, data is bought and sold, which is also why you see companies you used or products you need pop up in ads across any platform. I'm no expert but more people should be aware of this.
Smarticle Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 i've only had 1 or 2 of those gay massaging videos show up but tons of those gay shorts being recommended tayo ricci is a queerbait plague tbh
NoOneDiesFromLove Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 I only get that kind of shorts recommended, but let me add that second video to my watch later
commander Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 I don't but horror has definitely become a gay niche thing.
tellem Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 Not anything gay but the far right YouTube shorts are so weird The algorithm for shorts is so awful 1
ToMmY Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 Reminder that Youtube is owned by Google and Google knows EVERYTHING about you. 35 minutes ago, Joyride said: I bet your insta recommedations are the same Instagram has the worst algorithm ever, especially compared to TikTok. It only works with ads.
JoeAg Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 no I wish lol the only gay content I ever get recommended is those f*cking videos that are like "guess who's gay and who's straight based on appearance" "based on voice" ugh like shut the f*ck up already and then I get a bunch of homophobic and transphobic shorts all over the place. like leave me alone pls
popmusicisdead Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 YouTube should do what Instagram does and let users block certain words from being recommended. it's how I don't get posts about "Drag Race", "Kpop" and "Melanie Martinez" on my explore page.
Mr. Blue_Shirt Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 YouTube never recommend these gay massage videos because they know I'm still in the closet thank god
DamianSolo Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 My recommendations are just a ton of random videos, based on a variety of themes; I'm always jumping from one thing to the next, so...
RunUpDoneUp Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 No, I rarely get gay stuff because I watch lefty YouTube for politics I get rec. a bunch of rightwing garbage though. Like a LOT.

Illuminati Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 Youtube suggests videos based on your watch history, search history and the stuff you liked/ subscribed to. If you turn all of it off and clear your history it only suggests based on what you're subscribed to Looks like Google knows you well!
