The algorithm is an incredibly powerful tool, and just like a knife or a blowtorch, it can be mishandled and/or abused.

Yes, but the people who decided how the algo should work on youtube decided it should increase watch time and ad revenue, not quality content. Same with facebook. I dont want to have to chooce between good and clickbait content, the same way i dont want to have to choose between unhealty or good food options in the supermarket.
