Nowadays, yes. But that comes down to the fact that most people don't care, which continuously degrades YT content to what it is now, and further degrades it into even more of an absurdity. That's why I barely watch YT videos anymore, and I was a pretty active viewer in the past, being with the platform pretty much since its creation. Boycotts unfortunately only work if people collectively pull through, but at least I can say that I personally stay out of the nonsense. It's not like there aren't other things I could be doing.
