Some people might take issue with the Veritasium recommendation. I think he's great though.
My interest in his videos plunged after that, and it seemed like he was re-alinging for consistent high views over straight hard factual education. Frankly I wish I could purge him from my feed at this point (youtube still recommends all his videos incessantly, despite me not watching one for at least a year now. On paper I am the ideal viewer though, so...)
It's one of the very few things that actually work
I've heard this from a couple other people, though, which makes me wonder if the alleged "don't recommend channel" button is hooked up to different API calls in different UIs...
Just checked, and I don't see it in the suggestions under a particular video, only on the main feed. I don't know if they're hiding it or what.
