it's fascinates me how social platforms are never able to control their own narrative, most YouTuber's hate YouTube, most Redditors complain about Reddit. the volume of negative sentiment must be enormous for them not to have configured their recommendation algorithms to suppress content that is anti-them

There's just no need. Negative sentiment doesn't hurt the balance sheet, and users will be back to get their fix tomorrow, every time. Youtube keeps making ads more intrusive and people keep watching. What people say they care about, and what they are actually willing to take action to change, are extremely disconnected.

How many of the complainers are actually watching the ads? It's trivial to block ads on YouTube; just install uBO, or use an app like Revanced.
