Hey @PhillyD here’s the thumbnail YouTube wants you to usepic.twitter.com/1bnk5GTYG1
Didn't follow up with the drama, but they are testing an hypothesis on 0,3% of users - what's the fluff about ?
Testing means possibly implementing it fully later on
They'll implement it if it performs better. That's the fluff I don't understand.
I think why people are annoyed is that the 0.3 affected weren't notified. So their custom thumbnails were replaced without notice until someone brought it up.
I get you! They have to understand that it's the whole point of an experiment though :/ Otherwise it would be biased. Every tech giants has been doing this forever.. I GUESS its partially biased now, besides the population that's not logged in / lambda usrs.
@TeamYouTube would be cool to get the results for the experiment and onboard creators so themselves can conduct experiments!
Yeah, would have been better to get people on board rather than essentially picking out of a hat.
It's not only about not being notified. They "mentioned" it around two weeks ago in a dead forum where by the time Phill made a video the post was seen by only 180 people. Also, if I remember phill's math correctly, the 0,3% is about 4-5 million users affected.
