Even as a consumer, youtube is becoming a chore to find decent content. For example, I watched the oscilloscope music guy, Jerobeam Fenderson, recent tutorials about making his 0-scope music, and now my recomended list if just filled with his and similar videos. That is fine, but I've already watched all of his videos and the recommended list will never drop recommending them so the exact same ones seem to persist. Then below that they recommend his channel, and further, they recommend playlists made by others with those same videos. It has become nauseating. I am already aware of them.
It is worse if you happen to watch a fail video. then you will be in regurgitated fail video hell. It used to be better many years ago and not so back when you could more easily view popular channels as opposed to content and channels that they select for you. I guess that's why some have made good channel lists here...
