    When I was younger and on youtube (A mistake I hope those with children don't make) there was at least a false sense of humbleness, the "front page" was filled with minecraft players, make-up and D-list comedians, the lot of them millionaires smart enough to seem working class. Now it seems to be filled with wealth porn, and I worry it fuels an even greater materialistic existence.

      At a certain point, hitting the Feed Bar generates diminishing returns. People get burned out on the same recycled crap spamming them endlessly. It tends to prompt the nostalgia culture - vaporwave aesthetic is a great example of this - which can be good and bad. But it also just turns people off, broadly speaking.
