It's a pity YouTube doesn't let people built innovative interfaces to this treasure trove.

It's so frustrating that their interface is so very bad for discovery and exploration.

It feels like I stumble upon gems in spite of their UI and have been trying to spend less time there to avoid the timesink otherwise. If it's not saved on my watch later / in my subscriptions or recommended to me credibly, it's probably a waste of time.

		So what? Either it appeals to my interests or it doesn't. Why should I care if a million other people get it recommended as well?
