    Doesn’t that make sense? How would they know what to recommend if they don’t store the history of what you watch?

    Yes I know it’s bogus and they store it anyway - but just to humor the theory.

      Maybe they can just ask you about what you want to watch?

      Speaking of which, have you watched the movie yet? Pretty good right? ☺️

        I feel like that defeats the purpose of automated recommendations, since you can still search for the videos (that you want to watch) and create playlists either way.

        Hah that would make sense indeed. Right against Google’s modus operandi though.

        What movie? Barbie? (Guessing based on your username.) Not yet. I’m binging Star Trek SNW now.

          You’ve been on LW for this long and don’t know about me.😭

          And I participated in both Star War Memes and Totally Not Robots after you made them…

            I know about you, I just don’t remember if we’ve talked about some movie. My memory isn’t what it used to be.
