The goal is to make you click and anything that could stop you is considered a problem. I’d say it’s a short term strategy that will lead to long term failure but I’m not sure anymore. Tiktok and Instagram are feeding their users a bunch of trash too and it still works.
How much time are people looking through the homepage instead of watching videos?
If youtubes goal was to make people only watch the begging of an episode, which has the most ads(i think, i havent seen an ad on youtube in a long time), why are they promoting videos that make people watch for longer?
