The optimist in me hopes this will be used to give smaller channels a push in views and attention, even years later, when they may have been skipped over or ignored previously.
The realist in me knows this will be used to push garbage that would otherwise be self-filtered by users due to the red flags of dates/views.
Youtube also started recommending small channels more often a while ago
It would also make more sense to prefer people watching smaller creators compared to bigger ones because, as far as i know, youtube gets more money from channels that arent monetized yet(getting 100% instead of 55% i think)
The problem for me in my recommended page, is most of the newly created channels are AI generated and it’s really hard for me to tell if it’s real content. I had to ignore small and new channels as a matter of principle.
