As someone who has long disabled youtube search history/recommendations (and shorts disabled with an extension) 
I was pretty shocked that only 4-5% of his views come from the subscription feed. The irony too is that this video of his is saturated with stock footage to break up the monotony (which he usually never does so it's more of a dunk on his dumber viewers) instead of just one longshot of him staring into the camera the whole time which he has done other videos about. Though part of this is possibly related to his use of a teleprompter and multiple takes to make better videos without obvious jump cuts but I suspect he's just high level attempting to dumb shit down to reach the lowest common denominators.

Overall these hot takes highlight the problem with doom scrolling as well as the overall decreased attention spans of people and the enshittification of all medias and movies which really started to gain momentum imo around 2000-2010.
Lets use the most common vehicle, movies. Movies used routinely to hold long shots but still held your attention.
Old Alfred Hitchpeepee movies are a good example of this which included slow long takes which were planned out in meticulous detail. Here's one of my favorite scenes showing this at it's best from North by Northwest (1959) :
If you haven't seen North by Northwest I don't blame you, but it's basically the original Bourne Identity except if that was a good movie without shitty shaky cam.
Not only was N by NW good, it was planned meticulously . I know this because I've seen Bigpeepee's storyboards for the movie.
Ironically, these storyboards are NOT EVEN really accessible online anymore and even trying to FIND them with AI fricking breaks the AI lmfao:
In addition, the AI links to shit artwork by a fricking r-slur zoomer who REMADE STORYBOARDS FOR HITCHPEEPEE WITHOUT FRICKING REALISING THEY ALREADY EXISTED

The irony.
This pissed me off so much that I went through the trouble to compile the real story boards, unfortunately it's so difficult to find this shit online anymore because of shit algorythms, I had to manually piece it together from a collection of High and low quality sources due to dead links and shit just so you can compare the actual talent making film used to have:
To round it off, here is a peak example heralding the one of the earliest clear examples of enshittification of movies. I always go back to is this trash one called Domino (2005) from the apex of Keira Knightley's career as a shitty proana actress. The entire movie is literally nothing but jumpcuts that are 99% sub 2-second shots.
Example, Just count the seconds between each cut:
The film bombed because it was shit and also unwatchable, but now the idea that you must be bombarded every second with SUB 1-SECOND CUTS is the eye 
way of the future, and driven 24/7 by algorithms and dopamine.
TLDR:
Reject algorithms
Embrace thinking
- Algorithm based feeds are r-slurred blackholes that result in feedback loop degradation/model collapse of your brain
or go to heck you lazy fricking c*nts

I have a giant bookmark folder of YouTube channels organized by genre/subject.
I've got channels for auto mechanics, edutainment science, vfx breakdowns and guides, various exercise and sports guides, many many songs, cooking, horticulture, and more. I use my blocking preferences in brave to completely hide the suggested videos section.
Zero brain rot. Well actually I use rdrama so this is kind of like

I wish this kinda thing was internal to shittube so I didn't have to have everything clustered into 1 feed with shitty thumbnails to boot. They have algorithms on top of algorithms now where when people release a new video you can use 3 different thumbnails to game the attention of people and eventually it will automatically update to choose the most viewed thumbnail.
!schizomaxxxers if you ever saw a weird thumbnail for a youtube video change on something you've already watched this is why

It's so easy to screw up your algorithms, my YouTube is all educational stuff and documentaries, but I've logged out from yt on this browser so shit that I click from this website doesn't pollute my recommendations
