Why isn’t it in YouTube’s best interest? They don’t care if the product gets praised or trashed, they aren’t selling it, you watch the video/ ads and they’re happy
I misinterpreted your original comment saying that YouTube wouldn’t lead you directly to them to mean that it would stear you away from them (which would of course require them to do the sorting you’re talking about). Yeah they don’t really give a shit, just shovel whatever they think will get you to engage.
YT has black boxes at all major ISPs. These cache local content. They prioritize what gets shown based on what is cached. This is why YT changed drastically around 2017. It is why you do not see content from ultra niche and high quality sources at random or get into advanced education like happened in the past.

Youtubers need content. That means advanced releases of new electronics. You can’t get that unless every ‘review’ is positive.
Fuck Unbox Therapy and Lewis Hilsenteger he started the enshitification of YouTube.
It costs money for them to attempt to sort between honest/upfront advertising and the scummy kind.
