tbh my experience has been that YT comments are dramatically better than they used to be

Really? Most I’m seeing lately is obvious bot spam with content that’s not only blatantly against the rules but outright disgusting.

CW: mentions of animal abuse, violence, and racial slursyoutube comments

And that’s not even the worst ones. I’ve seen some which mention and promote CSAM. Reporting these seemingly does nothing.

I’ve found it varies extremely. Community/channel/field seems to make a big difference in the usual kind you’ll see, but there appear to be platform problems ito blocking some stuff from being posted/caught, too
