“Channels that your Audience Watches”
I don’t think I’m surprised by any of this.

@mattgrayyes my YouTube audience skews male so much. I hate it but then also it may be that YouTube guesses gender from your viewing habits?

@seb_ly @mattgrayyes That's linked to how do people find new creators i'm sure!
For me it's through recommendation by other creators and collaborations, and zero percent through YouTubes algorithm.

I filter out all generated lists through a browser plugin so I only experience YouTube through my subscriptions. All discovery is done through existing creators I am subbed to or direct recommendations from friends or the internet.

I bet the algorithm biases recommendations partially on gender.
