 YouTube just delivered another completely useless feature that no one ever asked for. 🤦‍♂️

 1) what 
 They’re desperate 
 Only to gauge what colour Google ads you might have a preference for. 
 Ah okay, makes sense.  
 If only their devs could be converted to nostr... Then they could ACTUALLY work on something good 😭 
 Useless AND weird. They are going to feed it to their AI. 
 Kennedy the only one choosing green 😭😭
 
 After thorough testing, 
Blue noise is horrible. 
Green and Red noises are okay, 
Green is more spacey though. 
Like 🟩 star wars vs 🟥 emirates first class. 
Regretfully, orange is just as bad as blue, 
Brown is the best, so I'll take that as a win.

 Whats useless about the "new to you" algo?  ... do you mean it's useless for seeing content outside of ones bubble? Or do you see such a feature as useless per se? 
 Why would anyone care about this? 
 The blue feed paired with Eiffel 65 is bliss. Don’t knock it til you try it.
