I think it has its place but it should absolutely be optional. Yeah they suck but the YouTube algorithm is responsible for like 70% of my knowledge base.

I miss accidentally finding the most random stuff on YouTube way back before they started pushing monetized content, but it's been a very long time

I feel like algorithms when done well are amazing. Like, the YouTube Music algorithm is so great for music, I just start playing a song and it takes it from there. Unlike Spotify, which has gone downhill these days, I never feel the need to skip a song on YTM.
