That's just your history of what you watched, liked, disliked, etc.
The problem is that the system behind it is inherently stupid. You liked Vintage Story? Here's some Minecraft! And since they're games, you likely also like OTHER GAMES! Right? So here's some Roblox and Fortnite! Our trends say those are super popular with the cool guys and you surely are a cool guy too, right?! And with that comes all the clickbait bullshit too, so I say I'm not interested in those channels and block them, so YT now thinks I dislike gaming and scrubs everything again, until I manually search & watch another video of a game because obviously it also scrubbed the ones I'm interested in. Or you watched some music videos, REPEATEDLY? Here's all the videos you previous have watched! Now you have to click, not interested, click for why, click you have watched it already, click okay. Repeat for every video you ever watched until YT gets the hint, for at least a day or two until it repeats the stupidity again.
You literally have to fight the system constantly. It's why I don't watch YT much anymore, or use private tabs now, which bring their own issue now that they also frequently block VPN IPs and ask you to log in, but that would then again muddle my watch history and consequently spam my feed with all sorts of irrelevant shit that I don't want.
The only thing that got better over the years is the video quality, like from an encoding standpoint, the content quality went way down.
.sh files are shell scripts, they're comparable to Windows batch files or newer powershell scripts. They can be useful for tools with lots of dependencies which they then download on their own, so you often see them when you want to install something like LLM tools from Github or whatever. They're easy to put together and easy to edit, even for the user itself, unlike a precompiled installer.
Yes, Twitter, Mastodon, Bluesky and all its other niche platforms are very much person based. They can still be topical, based on who that person is and what they post, but they have this self-centered drive that never made me click with any of them. Hashtags help with discovery since you can search and even subscribe / follow certain hashtags, or use them to block / filter certain topics. But there's also often people who abuse that and just spam hashtags, or people who don't tag their posts properly, which makes it a very flawed system imo.
Forums, Reddit, Lemmy, mbin (excluding the microblogging section), etc. are all topic based, and users are just contributing to those topics but ultimately not important as the person. That being said, some also allow you to follow the people directly as well, but at least for me that's never been much of a thing.
Which service specifically are you referring to? YT's search function has been constantly degrading over the years and spews out more unrelated bullshit than ever. And their algorithms are the worst and most moronic thing ever, and also somehow got worse over the years.
I'm completely fine with "no algorithms", I even want that. But you have to give the user control over what they want to watch instead of just throwing random videos at them.
He didn't lost his company because he lied as a press entity, he was lying for years without issues, he lost his company because he directly defamed the victims and their loved ones, which caused a massive lawsuit by them that went in their favor. Even in the US there's still a few restrictions to free speech, and defamation is one of them.
You know your local news network has a TikTok right?
That's not what people watch though. People get their news from "influencers", often time those with far right alignments, or straight from fascist parties who are the ones with the most reach on TicTok.
The problem is that media is unregulated and people are allowed to lie and pass off that information factual.
That's literally what the free press is, and a fundamental pillar of a free and democratic society. Regulated media is censored media, and exactly what fascists want.

If Russia disconnects, or get disconnected, then they're just not part of the internet anymore. The internet itself will continue to exist though - and probably would be quite a bit better.
I think social media algorithms have fried people's brains. Imagine we'd ban them, go back to content being kinda diverse and random, without adversaries able to game the system and push massive swaths of propaganda to people. The fact alone that most youths get their news from freaking TicTok of all places...
I find mobs that rape, torture and cannibalize you worse - and that may or may not be the order they go with. Or just slowly dying of thirst or starvation. I'd rather take a quick blast to the face and be done with this bullshit.
I'd already be happy if AMD goes with 24 GB on their upper midrange cards, but I would not be surprised if they stick with 16 GB. 48 GB seems extremely unlikely, unfortunately.
Doing LLMs with 8 GB is not fun, especially not with RDNA 2 which has so many issues with ROCm.
It's fucked how people don't realize this, or still talk like in 4 years it's going to be over. We were on our way to 3 degrees Celsius BEFORE this election already. The rest of the world is not going to be able to compensate for the US emissions under Trump. I'd really like to hear someone explain to me what chance we still have, that does not boil down to "if we ALL act NOW, then we can DO IT!" type of copium. Because if we didn't act before, then we sure as hell aren't now. People apparently want it this way.
I think I just did automatons back then because that's where the rewards were but it was a completely overwhelming number of enemies spawning in non-stop. Combined with the sort of time limit I just did not enjoy that experience at all. Maybe you can kinda get better and grind through it I feel I'd rather waste my time and money on something that's balanced around singleplayer, even if just optionally.
