I never actually log into YouTube so don’t get a tailored feed.

Popular videos all adopt one of several formats for their cover.

Search “house music”. It’s always hot girls.

Yeah it’s all that and that bald firefighting bloke. Honest kind of OK with it.

My main account there is nothing like this, even the shorts are mostly pop science stuff.

But my other account is very much this way on purpose, much like my other Lemmy account, X account (really the only one I use anymore), etc.

When I’m logged in, the few shorts they show me tend to be from channels I’m subscribed too. If I go to the homepage incognito (back when they still showed you stuff when you rejected their terms) it was mostly either shock value, expensive stuff, sexualised stuff, sports. So lowest common denominator stuff, I guess.

I’ve found that shorts is pretty aggressive about serving up more of the same stuff if you watch something and don’t downvote it.

I had the idea to start counting it as a “Thirst-trap BINGO” each time every single thumbnail for shorts recommendations had a half naked woman with her mouth slightly open. Turns out that it happened more than half the time, and the game quickly got boring.

I have never watched a single short on YouTube, so apparently it’s just the default recommendations that are horny af.

Yes, but for some reason it’s asian women doing sports. I never watch shorts anyway so whatever.

realitista ,

Yeah lots of thirst traps. I have the big issue on FB shorts. I have to admit I’ve taken the bait and honestly it’s not worse than anything else on my feed so whatever.

Matriks404 ,

No, but I don’t mind that. It’s the only time short feed content is acceptable for me.

MilitantAtheist ,

Most of them are promoting their OF

Kusimulkku ,

I’ve watched of one clip of that “NPC girlfriend” or whatever. Now the recommendation is all that and softcore porn. Haven’t watched porn on YouTube, that I remember. Maybe it’s because I turned off all tracking I could it just goes with age and gender or something.

Mines all guns and motorcycles lol.

I haven’t actively used Facebook since I was in high school, and recently scrolling through my feed it’s not even softcore it’s straight up p*rn!

I keep hiding these posts & they don’t stop appearing… I wish I could tell Facebook I’m not a perpetually online horny teenager anymore. ¯⁠\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠⁠/⁠¯

Mine are mostly about nail art techniques and skincare reviews in French.
