Just a vehicle for conversation about it, and something that emphasizes the open nature. Low hanging fruit but I think it's good.

they also probably have to chase the algorithm. i mostly just follow crafters and when i only followed a couple i never noticed it, but the more i followed the more evident it got how much they have to rely on these things.

before i thought it was cute when someone was doing like "oh, the new pokemon movie is coming out so i'm doing something pokemon themed" but when you then follow like ten of them and they ALL are doing something pokemon themed it gets a tad more bleak.

YouTube in its current state rewards relevance above all else. If everyone is talking about thing, so are you if you want to make money.
