And then get you to look at more.

I stumbled onto "Coding adventure" series of videos from contributer Sebastian Lague
Dude just makes planets, atmospheres, clouds, ecosystems, flocking algorithms etc. for fun.

Jet-washing, car valeting and drain clearing are but a few of the things that have taken me on a journey down the rabbit hole.

I am constantly offered up videos I've already seen, and YouTube knows I've seen them because it presents them to me with the little thin red line at the bottom that shows your progress in the video.
Why would the algorithm do that?

Why would the algorithm do that? Maybe they're ones you've seen, but ended before seeing 100% of it? I get offered videos I've partially seen quite often. Or maybe it's just a little dumb

Some of the most interesting videos (and genres) that I've watched have been things that randomly popped up and weren't related in any way that I could comprehend to my past viewing history.
Also some of the least interesting.
SALUTE TO ALL!

Use to play a game against it. Would mark every suggested video with a dislike. And then go ahead reload. Worked for a while, Would only get few videos suggested and even then another reload and it start over with stuff I never look at. Gave up trying.
