He is solid. Never met the dude but probably had like 10 conversations with him online. I don‘t like Dougs content but I have to give credit to him as well for considering and responding to feedback.
Farah and Zack put in so much effort to give the audience exactly what they wanted, listening to feedback, elaborating if there was a reason they couldn‘t give you what you wanted, and acting on it.
Maybe that‘s part of the reason why I hate youtube, content creators are out there servicing every need of their audience and youtube is like „yeah but have you seen this top 10 video that involves no original content whatsoever, that‘s quality content we need to recommend right there“.
Not true at all. And I‘m not talking about my personal feed I‘m talking about the fact that a billion dollar corporation is able to pretend this garbage algorithm is the best they can do.
And even if the average user does click on that content, how braindead do you have to be to recommend top 10 compilations over channels which put a serious budget into original content specifically for your company, don‘t make me laugh.
It sais the algorithm is pushing: „Relevance, Engagement, Quality“
And what relevance is, that‘s entirely up for Youtube to interpret.
Now if you‘re able to login to a computer with no search history and straight face tell me the stuff on the trending pages is relevant when that‘s supposedly their number 1 criteria then you‘re either completely out of your mind or you‘re getting a feed that‘s entirely different from the one they push in Germany.
