You may be missing a lot of good comments on YouTube videos (at least, if you watch entertaining content that gets a lot of upvotes). Now that comments are filtered by a sort of āmagic algorithmā (which I assume is similar to the Forumāsārecency and upvotes), top comments on positive/āentertaining videos are regularly very funny and occasionally provide interesting background context.
That said, I canāt speak to intellectual content, and Iām sure that ācontroversial contentā comments are still terrible, because they lead to more upvoting of negative content that one side or the other wants to support.
