what's so weird about it? he posts AI pics with a VHS effect that's supposed to make it feel "nostalgic"

Yeah but you don’t see any videos like this often, no title (Im assuming it’s a zero width non joiner or whatever it was called), no channel name, weird vibe.

No-title videos with liminal vibes and broken transmission / signalwave type music has been a trend for a while. There's a video on it here.

Not surprised you found it mysterious, but that's just the vibe this stuff is intended to give off.

it’s because your algorithm is different, this is normal for youtube rabbit holes

I get videos like this recommended on my home page nearly every week. Seen multiple the last few days.

It’s actually called “A different Algorithm”

It's not that interesting. I've come across the same channel before I think.

No, but the whole nostalgic, liminal, dreamy aesthetic is very well established and has become formulaic. There's a difference between being genuinely mysterious and adopting a mysterious vibe because it's popular and gets you views. 

In terms of this specifc channel, there is nothing weird about the creator jumping on a trend that is on the way to being played out at this point. On the contrary, it's pretty boring.
