    Yeah I mean if a parent was always curing the content, it could be useful. But to me that’s the same as not letting them have it, you just put on some YouTube videos every so often for them that you choose on your device (we do this now, I just don’t allow it on their devices).

      How do I has a parent curate content? I have not found anything that lets me allows the good. Either I block youtube completely, or I get what google decides is good for my kids (which blocks things I find good while allowing the bad)

        Exactly. The only way is to block it and then choose something on your device whenever you want to show them something, and never let them use it without you choosing the content. The algorithm will always lead them to the darkest bowels of garbage content in my experience.
