Are they supposed to be all completely random with no relation to your usual preferences?

I’m not certain what you are referring to. Do you mean the TikTok videos that are uploaded onto YouTube?

Youtube basically wants their own version of TikTok. See: Instagram Reels.

They have a section called YouTube shorts that has minute or so of clips of various things, mostly short comedy sketches, movie/music clips, podcasts, etc. I assume this is their way of competing with Tik Tok, but the clips they suggest are all over the place and often quite repetitive.

I absolutely despise Youtube Shorts. Thanks to the idiotic algorhythm misinterpreting my enjoying the occasional Dodo or other animal rescue video, the site keeps recommending me videos with badly injured animals like turtles with damaged shells so there's a good chance I'll be greeted with gore every time I open the main page.

Because of my usual search history I mostly get people reacting to wrestling clips, “Did You Know About Hidden Stuff In This Disney Movie”, clips from shoot interviews, amateur sports clips, teens falling on their faces doing something stupid, fighting game combos, and apparently this guy who is fantasizing about being Trunks from DBZ and how he’d kill everyone because…they’re all..stupid, I guess?
Jeezus brah, it’s a cartoon. Don’t ever watch Fairly Odd Parents.

I don’t use the website for YouTube. I use the app on my PS5 and on my Firestick. On my FYP there are clips that, if they are simply TikToks then they imitate them perfectly. They are vertical phone videos that loop like TikToks. Several that show up for me are clips from TikTok content creators I’m familiar with, so if they’re not their TT videos then someone has lifted their content (which, to be fair, happens on the clock app too).

I keep getting recipes for these and, fair enough, I love to cook and I'm always looking for new recipes. The problem is that the people making these shorts almost never include measurement amount for ingredients so it becomes difficult to make them myself. They're not so much giving cooking advice as much as they're showing off delicious food that we can never have.

My children often watch these videos on the TV in the living room and the TVs in their rooms. Unlike normal YouTube videos they don't jump to another video when it's finished playing so it's just the same short video clip playing over and over again. They'll leave the room and go elsewhere and these dumb videos will still be playing ad nauseam. Drives me nuts.

I click the X to indicate I'm not interested, and YouTube tells me they will be hidden from me for 30 days. They come back 2 days later.

They're gonna skyrocket in terms of how much they're used if Tiktok actually gets banned in the US I feel like

Because of Youtube shorts, I've found out about a thicc redhead woman who dresses like sexy Ronald McDonald. So...thanks, I guess.

I tried to avoid TikTok because of the addictive nature of it but here I am on YT shorts wasting an entire hour watching people chopping up avacados or fights in McDonalds. I’ve got massive respect for people who decide not to have a smartphone.

The guy who plays every character in a fictional restaurant is no joke, like one in every 5 shorts.

I’m not familiar with it, but I do love the series where a woman plays every character at the Hellp Desk in Hell. I also enjoy a different redhead that re-enacts stories she allegedly experienced as a bartender/waitress before she finished her education to do social work in Canada, though she has been taking a break recently.

Yeah, they seem to have one of those types of performers and just beat it into the ground then move on to the next one. I am endlessly fascinated by the YT algorithm. It seems to recommend topics I have looked up once or not at all over and over.

It seems to read browser data, as a meme group I'm a member of on Facebook has been going through a Philomena Cunk phase, and within an hour of me viewing one of those memes my YT Shorts recommendations was packed with Cunk clips.
