yeah that happened to me an hour ago. I chose the middle one because that was my favorite color scheme of the three choices. Result: the associated video selections were nothing special But I wonder if they took into account my algorithms I already had going, plus the blue purple color scheme 🤔
Why would you even interact with a dumb promp like this?
because I was curious cuz I’ve always wanted to go to promp but nobody ever asked me.
I’m just… wondering what the internal corporate process that led to this. Like, they had to get people to code this feature, like imagine being the person who gets told “ oh yah, you and your team are implementing and integrating the new feature that sorts video feeds by color.”
“Hey, you know that fancy AI we’re developing? I just had a crazy cool idea to use it for!”
Someone just got hired at my work and they organize their apps by color. I started disassociating.
I’ve got a folder called “apps with a white background” for shits and giggles. Still adhere to it to this day
And I change any of those shit icons to the version of it in the icon pack I use (called Caelus, paid)
I’d call the folder “don’t open at night”
And then it’d be only a matter of time until I suspect it summons demons or something, and open it anyway
summons demons
Guess what, an F-Droid app already exists for that. And people still dare say they don’t have one for everything!
Please don’t tell me they do the same with their books.
Oh no wait, they probably don’t have any.
makes a program whose icon changes colors every few months explicitly to annoy people like this
I do that it’s way faster
Damn those visual people. Remembering what things look like rather than what they’re called. Bunch of idiots.
I didn’t used to sort mine by colour, but then I noticed when sorting by purpose, I’d usually end up with only one or two colours (often blue), and so now I sort by colour and purpose to I have a nice gradient
My apps are in an alphabetical list.
i think it’s cute
Cute or not, it’s wasting money and time that could be spent on actually improving the app. YouTube constantly pushes more ads more aggressively saying they don’t make profit, while wasting money in such absurd way
prove that it’s wasting money.
advertisers have long understood the relationship between color and emotion. to me it seems downright reasonable that google have discovered (or are collecting) data that increases viewership, retention, and total ad revenue 🙂
Ngl, as a fan of green, this doesn’t look that bad to me :P
I haven’t seen this but it doesn’t seem like a big deal, unless they’re spamming you with it. people seem to have a pathological need to be mad about youtube updates tbh
I once knew someone who organized their CD collection by colour to annoy her house mates.
add black so it can recommend dan howell and mcr videos, cowards
I choose black.
The feature I really want is to be able to filter my suggested videos by length.

I don’t even want this, and my favorite flavor is crayon!

“Just because something can be built does not mean it should.”
Bro this made me so mad, holy fuck. Just show me the channels I’m subscribed to and adjacent content, that’s it. You haven’t succeeded at that in years.
this is why I’m using newpipe + invidious, no random bs there.
Tubular is a fork of Newpipe that has adblock too.
