My beef with YouTube music is that no matter what song I start from, in 4 songs it has turned into Levitating by Dua Lipa.

Children’s songs? Foreign language? Electro swing? Hip hop? Doesn’t matter. Levitating is coming soon.

That's interesting, I haven't had that experience. I wonder what's creating the difference between the two of us :(

With regular YouTube I swear if I watch any music video, or even non-music videos sometimes, there's about a 50-50 chance that the next recommended music video is "In the meantime" by Spacehog. Don't get wrong it's a good song, but jeez I keep attempting to go down music video rabbit holes and all it shows me are ones I've already seen.

Mine is pain by boy harsher. I like boy harsher. But the frequency that it comes up is uncanny. Though on the whole the algorithm does do fairly well for me and I have quite eclectic taste. Punk, Post Punk, goth, electro swing, horror Punk, Psychobilly, chap hop, EBM, EDM, darkwave, new wave, all the other wave wave, classic rockc, metal, rockabilly, etc.

But for me. YT just has way more of what I listen to. And one of the nicer things is I can switch between regular audio or music video on appropriate devices.
