    I’ve been using YouTube as my primary source of entertainment since 2009. I don’t think I’ve looked at the trending page even once.

    Has the internet ever been a ‘monoculture’?

      The trending page of YT is like the r/all of Reddit. If I want to see some stuff I couldn’t care less about, that’s where I’ll find it. I have no idea who actually uses that, but I’ve never found anything of value there.

        The only view of reddit I have is top/hour.

        The YT trending was disgusting boring farmed content. It was like going to r/all two days ago.

      Exactly. I have my own interests and I just stick to that. Arts and crafts and dog grooming videos haven’t made me angry.
