It's ironic to see a complaint that youtube recommendations are stale, in the comments of a complaint that they lead people to discover offensive things. Can't have it both ways. Either you let people discover new things (some of which might be offensive) or not.

Just because every now and then it shows something interesting or different doesn't mean that they aren't stale for the most part.

This misses my point entirely. I'm not commenting on whether youtube recommendations are stale or not. I'm pointing out that it's contradictory to complain both that the recommendations are too stale and that people discover offensive things.

My point is that it's not. Mostly stale doesn't mean there is never something outside the norm. As such, I do not believe I am missing your point, but that you are willfully and incorrectly assuming that everything is always an absolute.
