The number of articles out about the latest and greatest game updates from a few hours ago which are rehashing patches released a week or more ago drive me nuts. How many times do I have to wade through multiple screens of preamble to find out that content is being recycled from week old news.
But yes, the ratio of low signal to high signal content is crazy in general. I get that people have to make a living and want to do it via communicating on YouTube/articles/... but I feel we've really lost access to high quality content. ChatGPT and other LLMs are going to make this wayyyyyyy worse.
Content recommendation algorithms push for length and frequency, which inevitably means meeting the quantity bar is more important than quality. Meanwhile we have really thought out high quality content buried in a mountain of clickbait and those creators both don't get as good monetization or exposure. It's a sad system :(. I want to see more ErrantSignal quality bar and less clickbait please.
