I like it for language learning. The books gets tedious as hell but some people have excellent short videos to help remember things and hear them pronounced by native speakers.

I never really considered there'd be useful content on there.

It’s easy block keywords so you don’t get dancing or politics, or at least, you can reduce it. The algorithm is also very good at serving your interests so if someone tells me all they’re seeing is dancing videos then it tells me they’ve been lingering on those for some reason :)

I’ve also found it a great resource for novel and practical info about:

  • Cooking
  • ADHD & Autism
  • Music production with Logic Pro
  • Human rights news
  • Creativity
