Why older YouTube videos are better
In general, the older a YouTube video is, the more wonderful the
content is. Conversely, in general, the newer a video on YouTube, the
more likely it is to be useless slop, with the slop-o-meter curve
pushing into the stratosphere as AI took over. No wonder Google took
away the ability to downvote YouTube shorts, they're largely AI-slop
pirated garbage ripping off other videos in a viscious circle of crap.
