These sensationalist videos are a plague for me. It only takes watching two or three regular videos on a specific topic for YouTube to hone in on it and start populating my feed with them. I find it very disappointing that they exist in every area that I am interested in, including relatively niche ones like functional programming and mechanical keyboards. Although, I have yet to come across a sensationalist video about prolog ;)

I have the exact same experience. I want to spend time on the platform and I can find videos that I like and would have loved for the algorithm to find for me, but I really have to search very thoroughly for them myself.
