#{{Oppose}} Per Camenati. Not even a half-second of thought shows how undercooked this proposal is. the algorithm also recommends videos based on the user in question's watch history, so if you're getting content that you don't want to see, then you only really have yourself to blame.

Prohibiting future YouTube uploads and requiring mp4s in future

As you all know, YouTube has an algorithm that recommends videos at the end of each video which may include upsetting news. climate change. extreme weather, COVID-19 etc. that I personally avoid and are not logo-related. Please prohibit YouTube uploads in future and require mp4s for videos. also convert as many YouTube videos to mp4 as possible.

Support

Abstain

Oppose

  1. Oppose because this is proposing a requirement, a ban on future YouTube uploads. Not only do a lot of contributors on this site lack the ability of uploading captures to the wiki, but also because there isn't a clear reason as to why YouTube uploads should be disallowed other than "algorithm bad". Moreover the algorithm, a logo-related video pops up in the feed for the most part, so if anything, these irrelevant videos, let alone upsetting ones, are rare to come by. Plus, if YouTube uploads will be thrown out the window, then there's another video sharing website you forgot to mention that will make this request look hypocritical and that doesn't carry the same issues as what you brought up.
