Shorts algorithms are trash. All of the content is braindead mainstream hogwash, none of which I remotely enjoy or watch on YouTube. I imagine Tiktok would not have this problem based on what I’ve heard.
Over a period of five years I’ve reported maybe three videos. Last week I reported ten Shorts. The reports range from misleading and copy right violation to encouring suicide, violence and endangerment.
YouTube simply does not care, Shorts are there to defend against TikTok, so it bypass any existing algorithmes.
