Oooh, just tried it and it looks pretty nice so far!!

It could be where you live too, maybe?

I live in the UK and never see ANY right wing stuff, even though we have our fair share of xenophobic nutjobs (some of them are even running our government’s immigration department currently).

But I’ve heard that some places in the USA may be extremely polarised regionally, and so maybe that coupled with your other demographic information such as gender, age, occupation, etc, might be giving YouTube the idea that you probably fit the standard local mould for a right winger and thus might appreciate the same suggestions?

That’s been my best guess whenever I see this kinda thing mentioned, though honestly it’s just a guess! It always seems to be USA people suffering from it too :-(

Maybe the laws against hate speech, disinformation, etc, aren’t as tight there and YouTube doesn’t have as much incentive to hide that content? That seems less likely, but who knows! When I lived in the USA I saw soooo much more blatant flagrant lies in official emails, ads, media content and such, it seemed acceptable in a way it’s not here.

I’ve only been recommended weird stuff like this maybe twice a year, but maybe that’s because I’ve used YouTube since it was new, and it learned my tastes before all this dodgy stuff showed up at all. Maybe I got ahead of it?

Now I mostly just get recommendations for niche electronic projects, dumb skits, and callmekevin. Just how I like it 😎

Christ, yes. Every other comment or post was something that assumed everyone was in the USA, or that they were the greatest most perfect wonderful nation and all others are basically hell on earth.

🤦‍♀️

As a slightly different perspective, I really wish I could play without the PVP, I just want to enjoy the awesome gorgeous visuals and atmosphere while experiencing the stories and cool lore.

I don’t get much opportunity to hang out with my friend and play sea of thieves, maybe a few hours every few months, so when someone ruins our entire night because they enjoy griefing other people, it really sucks.

Take the other day for example, they added a sort of short tales thing, or something like that, so we wanted to check it out, but we got chased off the moment we tried to reach the island the quest was on.

When we try to play a game only to be unable to actually experience the content and have our time wasted in the process? Really leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

Great game, needs an option to play PVP or PVE. Servers are spun up as players join and leave and are very small, no reason they can’t accommodate both playstyles with ease.
