For me it's because I don't use YouTube for that. I don't watch channels or personalities. If I go to YouTube, I'm there searching for something specific.
And when I find the video that shows me how to open my key fob to replace the battery, I'm not interested in a series of key fob videos. If I watch a video related to a news story, I'm not interested in all the reaction videos or analyses by people who don't know what they're talking about. I'm most certainly not interested in any other video with a thumbnail of someone with their mouth agape at something
I don't want it suggesting more of them, and I certainly don't want it automatically advancing to some other video after it's done. All I want is a video host that plays the videos I asked to watch. Everything else is just a reminder that the kind of videos they push are the exact kinds of videos I don't want to watch.
They get in the way, they draw attention to the wrong things, and they encourage people to make more of the kinds of videos that get in the way of finding the actual useful information
Me I use it while i'm working. One plug in my ear, and I listen to videos or podcasts like that. In that case, I need a lot of videos to watch/listen
