Most of what I watch on YouTube are science videos, history videos, and cooking videos. I don’t get the “jailbait click bait” and I have never gotten that. My biggest problem with YouTube besides their ad BS is the random right wing propaganda videos that creep in.
I don’t watch a lot of shorts but if I happen to see one it’s most definitely not “jailbait”.
I have seen title cards change on unwatched videos from something that is innocuous and directly related to the content to something with a scantily clad female, tangentially related to the video who is much younger than me.
While not technically Jailbait, the title cards are sexualised.
I mainly watch renovation, restoration, cinema, off-roading, engineering and fabrication.
The majority of this content is male-dominated and I do appreciate when videos aren’t bursting with aggressive machismo. I think the algorithm has determined that when I watch a video with a female host it is because it thinks I am being pervy.
Loops is a Fediverse equivalent.
It is not a medium that interests me, I have found the content on Loops to be mediocre.
That said, I have found the content on TikTok to also be mediocre and YouTube clips are just jailbait clickbait.
Yes, I know it is algorithm generated, but I am pretty sure everyone is just getting jailbait clickbait.
