Amazon does this too now. You sort by cheapest. Results not sorted by cheapest.

It makes me so frustrated. It's the most simple thing in the world, but they're deliberately fucking with it to try and trick people, and I hate it so much.

yeah it returns less results if you sort by price

So does youtube, if it even actually returns anything but "Fuck you I'm not doing that and I'm going to just go ¯_(ツ)_/¯ and say "Something went wrong!""

Yeah, 12,000 matches. Sort by price. 20 matches. like wtf Amazon, get it together

Do they show their basics first instead?

Well they intersplice those, along with ads at completely different prices. But then on top of all that the order is just also randomly slightly jumbled for no reason at all

You created a sub just to get your point across. Honestly, I'm impressed.

We needed it anyway. Hopefully there will be good news to post here in the future.

I agree it was needed. I don't think it is meant for all YouTube content though.

Most of my info comes in via YT at 2-3x while I'm doing other stuff, but most of it is topical and I don't post at least half of it as it's not worthy.

Despite being my main input I actually only have 2 related subs I want to make...

One is /s/VideoEssays for 10-20 rare high quality YouTubers that put out videos from a couple a week to 1 every month or two.

For the other one I'm having trouble coming up with a name. To be inclusive of other video platforms YT won't be in the name. These are some options to give you the idea, but I want a short name that covers all these:

I don't like any of them much. But with that and the VideoEssays subs set up I'd like to set up bots to auto-post into them. Of coure in the sub description I'd declare which posts are bot fed.

It'll be the same thing with any power you give them. That's why you NEVER bend the knee. Never give an inch.

Wait, what? So 150 years ago, a plan came to motion that would ultimately lead to me being unable to sort on YouTube?

No, I meant that when they tell you "these shitty rules are only going to be in place for a while" - it's usually a lie until everyone who remembers it was only temporary, is dead.
