Funny thing: I’m subscribed to that channel, and yet: the video just will not appear on subscription feed. It did pop up on frontpage, though.

Same!

Seems to be pretty common thing according to the comments in the video. “Funny” thing, indeed.

Though kinda weird if YT intentionally wanted to limit this video’s visibility by dropping it from subscription feed, but then offer it eagerly on the frontpage… what’s the logic on that.

lath@piefed.social on 30 Jul 07:17 next collapse

A result of vibe coding perhaps?

Nah. This is the sort of thing you get when different features are owned by different dev teams.

DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social on 30 Jul 18:28 collapse

Or deliberate yet deniable action.

megopie@beehaw.org on 30 Jul 09:29 collapse

Perhaps it’s a matter of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing. Like the front page and subscription page are fundamentally separated, and the algorithm sees this video doing well, but the subscription page has it shadow banned, but that shadow ban doesn’t transfer over.

People spend $60+ to go to overpriced movie theaters to eat some food and watch a movie ONCE with a friend or family for about 2 hours, only to no longer have access to it immediately afterwards.

Nobody cares.


People spend $60+ to play a game for potentially tens or hundreds of hours and there’s a chance they might not have access to it years down the road when they likely have forgotten about it anyway.

Everyone loses their fuckin minds.

People still go to movie theaters? Wow.

What’s going on with your cinema pricing, I don’t think I’ve ever paid more than £6 for a ticket

UnpledgedCatnapTipper@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 30 Jul 22:29 collapse

The ticket is the cheap part ($8-20, give or take). It’s like $20 for some popcorn and a drink, much more if you get something more substantial.

That’s not really part of the film though. Just go a couple of hours without eating or bring your own food if it’s that expensive, right?

Arkham@beehaw.org on 02 Aug 08:15 collapse

To be fair, a lot of movie theaters ban bringing in outside food. At least in my experience. I agree with just not eating though. It would certainly be healthier to decouple moviegoing from snacking.

smeg@feddit.uk on 02 Aug 09:29 collapse

Almost all I’m aware of are fine with it as long as it’s not hot or alcoholic, and I assume that’s for safety

Arkham@beehaw.org on 03 Aug 17:43 collapse

Might be a UK thing. Here in the US I don’t think I’ve ever been to a theater that allowed any outside food or drink. I doubt it’s because of safety, I’m pretty sure it’s because it would cut into their profits from concession stand sales.

lol, that’s you in the thumbnail
