It’s easy block keywords so you don’t get dancing or politics, or at least, you can reduce it. The algorithm is also very good at serving your interests so if someone tells me all they’re seeing is dancing videos then it tells me they’ve been lingering on those for some reason :)

I’ve also found it a great resource for novel and practical info about:

• Cooking
• ADHD & Autism
• Music production with Logic Pro
• Human rights news
• Creativity

I like it for language learning. The books gets tedious as hell but some people have excellent short videos to help remember things and hear them pronounced by native speakers.

I don’t tell anyone I use this site in case they come across that stuff first. I just say I use a site “similar to Reddit”. I’m surprised that they don’t ask me the name but most of my friends don’t spend so much time online.

It’s a pity about the name. Cultural appropriation of native Americans is an ongoing problem and this is just tone deaf.

People are laughing at the loss of money, but they got what they paid for: influence. They’ve successfully agitated our societies and swayed our politics. They might not care about the money.
