Same here, but on a different site ahem. The actor is literally listed under that name, so looking them up needs an actual query engineering to avoid looking like a pedo.
I have a similar problem when I try to search for "Codi Vore" on porn sites. I'm often greeted with an error message, "why are you searching for vore, you sick fuck?"
She doesn't even do vore, that's just her porn name.
a while back I was looking for someone named "Molly Green" on Instagram and they said "we cannot complete this request. here are addiction treatment resources"
A while back I sent my buddy a TikTok with the comment “this fucking killed me” and got an “if you are thinking about hurting yourself, here is the suicide prevention hotline” automated warning in the chat.
Playing devil's rusted avocado, if I know anything about mature content submissions, they'll latch onto any whitelisted combo as soon as it's discovered and dilute the actual desired content.
but that's also true of literally any other keyword out there. They wouldn't particularly be driving any more traffic since that's not what the user was searching for, they'd just be getting their whole site delisted.
You don't need to use YouTube's search engine to search YouTube.
EDIT: I mean, many of you, like me, probably long-since tried and then gave up on using Reddit's (really bad, at least last time I tried it) search engine to search Reddit, but found that doing "site:reddit.com" searches on Web search engines was still useful. The same principle applies elsewhere...
EDIT2: Plus, you may not even want the site:youtube.com qualifier, if you're fine with videos from other video-hosting websites.
YT's own search is garbage anyway. Whenever I try to use it, it's completely useless. Language preferences are also non-existent anymore, it seems. Even if I set everything to English and the query is also in English, it still gives me only results in local language.
Insane how weighted response filtering and graph search have existed for eons, to say nothing about the fact the search query could be pre-parsed by an LLM/"AI", and only now do these moronic companies use hard keyword filters.
Makes you wonder if it's really "for the children" or just attempts at hard-censoring to train their future AI models.
Repeat after me: It's NEVER about the children. It's ALWAYS about control. The EPSTEIN class cares not for your children except how to exploit them and profit off your compliance.
They've been censoring stuff like this for years and years before llms even existed man. People are like so up in arms about ai and all the bullshit there that they forget about how things were even 3 years ago. If you notice one of the biggest things on here is the dude isn't signed in if you're not signed in then it's going to ask if you're legit or not.
Facebook marketplace wouldn't let me search for an LSD for my car, I had to search for a limited slip differential, which gave me a ton of results for posts that had "LSD" in the listing.
That is exactly the problem.
I wander why much better platform is one that majority of people didnt even heard of.
And much worse platform is the one that eweryone uses…?
Shouldnt we compare two by technology and see whic one is better instead of just using the popular one..?
Because diference is huge!
Thats fair, but if product is good we users should be enough marketing to make word spread.
I heard from a guy so now am telling others hoping it will cach someone else who likes it.
First time i discovered it i was like omg this is great why i didnt know for this sooner.
The problem is, people dont understand technology, and dont know to chose better technology.
They just pick more popular platform, despite its much worse technology.
Than, when they get in trouble with censorship because of that, demonetisacion and other stuff, they just scratch their head, feel bad and dont know what to do..
But if you researc a bit about that problem, you can find out that its alredy been solved, and that is LBRY content freedom platform that technicly works totaly diferent from youtube but serves same purpose.
I don't have a Google account. I'm avoiding Google in general, but even when I want to make an account for work purposes, it tells me that my phone number has been used too many times for some odd reason.
Okay, I see, didn't notice the "login" on the screenshot before.
But then it kinda makes sense that the the most restrictive default filters are active.
No it doesn't. It's about friction. They want people logged in to better monitor them and collect their data. If someone uses their service while logged out the platforms make it difficult as possible in as many ways as possible to "encourage" people to create an account and log in. "Protecting the children" is just a satanic panic excuse. PARENTS are responsible for managing their children's online activities. Expecting platform providers to be the arbitrators of morality for our kids (or for adults) is how we ended up with Elon Musk's fucked up CSM generator on twixxer.
Wont let me search for Excrementory Grindfuckers either. I have to put "Excrementory Grindfuckers Youtube" into my search engine to get it to pull up. Pretty lame.

I find this one even dumber because it's simply dumb to censor the word "naked", which isn't even explicit, can be used figuratively, etc.
