Я всегда был уверен, что системы рекомендаций работают так плохо, потому что это слишком сложная задача. Владельцы площадок бьются с алгоритмами, машинным обучением, деревьями решений и взвешенными суммами, но получается всё равно херня, и человеку могут рекомендовать нерелевантный бред (и, что ещё хуже — не рекомендовать интересный для него контент).
Кажется, хорошо работают только рекомендации на Ютубе, но этому есть объяснение: контент на Ютубе более длительный и дорогой. Его сложнее производить, он выходит реже. Качественный ролик на Ютубе не будет говном практически независимо от темы, на которую он снят. А ещё меньшее число объёмных роликов проще кластеризовать и можно предлагать пользователю в небольших количествах.
Но если мы откроем YouTube Shorts (это очередной аналог тиктока с короткими вертикальными видео), то заметим, что качество рекомендаций упало сразу на два порядка: какие-то тупые попсовые шутки, "удивительные" факты из жизни, завлекающие отрывки из фильмов "код смотри в телеграм-канале", озвучка анекдотов и прочий мусор. Алгоритмы уже совсем не справляются с тем, чтобы предложить что-то годное, не говоря уже о релевантности конкретно мне, хотя история моих просмотров и вкусов Ютубу, очевидно, известна.
Тем не менее, иногда разработчики могут не только не уметь, но и не хотеть писать нормальные рекомендации. Вот ВК предложил мне BadComedian в блоке "Интересные авторы". Оставим в стороне, что Бэдкомендиан это ютубер, и у него в ВК в лучшем случае будут репосты ссылок на Ютуб. Но мне предлагают не паблик, а личную страницу.... на которой не было записей с сентября 2021 года. Нет совершенно никакого смысла быть подписанным на личную страницу Бэдкомедиана сейчас. Кажется, единственный критерий, на котором основывались эти рекомендации: общее число подписчиков.
Как должны работать рекомендации на самом деле? Алгоритмически я бы оценивал частоту постов (кстати, чрезмерно частые это тоже плохо, должно работать в минус), оценивал бы, является пост просто публикацией внешней ссылки на другой ресурс, является ли репостом паблика, и смотрел бы, сколько прошло времени с последней записи на странице автора. Наверное, в качестве коэффициента с небольшим весом можно добавить ещё объём контента в посте и активность людей (лайки + комментарии). Причём, делается это достаточно просто, никакой ML не нужен. Даже такая оценка, не берущая в расчёт тематику страницы, всё равно лучше, чем "Просто покажем людей, на которых когда-то подписалось куча народу, и им до сих пор лень отписаться после прекращения активности автора".
По крайней мере теперь меня не удивляет, что хвалёные Клипы постоянно подсовывают мне какой-то подростковый шлак вместо крутых видео с полётами на FPV-квадрокоптерах. YouTube Shorts по крайней мере пару раз такие вещи предлагал, а вот Клипы вообще ни разу (станицу Клипов я не открываю, разумеется, но в ленте новостей встречаются блоки с автовоспроизведением).
Кстати, на скрине есть второй автор — Стас "Ай как просто". Его банят на Ютубе за критику западной модели текущих событий, и он пишет: "Буду создавать каналы-однодневки, куда деваться". То есть у него даже мысли не возникает, что какая-то ещё площадка может служить его целям. Ну с таким отношением других площадок к рекомендациям — понятно.

🚨 16-year-old, Yousef Kaabneh ascended to martyrdom, after he was shot and killed by the IOF near the town of Jiljiliya, north of #Ramallah.
Yousef ascended in defense of his homeland amidst the settler and IOF invasion of his land.
Coinciding with his martyrdom, settlers launched attacks on the western areas of Sinjil and Jiljiliya:
• Four Palestinians were injured — two by live fire and two as a result of severe beatings.
• Settlers looted approximately 700 sheep and agricultural equipment belonging to local farmers in the area under the protection of the IOF.
Glory to the martyrs.
The occupation released the activist Abu al-Sabe' Qatash who is now in critical health, bearing visible signs of beating and torture.
Qatash was detained hours earlier while confronting a settler attack on his village, Yabrud, in #Ramallah.

Ramallah's Revenge - The Ein Bubin Operation:
On August 23, 2019, comrades of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine rose through the ashes of Oslo, dismantling illusions of peace upheld by the PA's security services to restore the era of fida'i operations, tearing apart the false sense of security imposed by the occupation and its collaborators.
Near Deir Ibzi' in #Ramallah, five comrades executed a complex operation that resulted in the killing of an extremist rabbi and the wounding of two settlers, including an IOF officer, with a PFLP-manufactured explosive. The rabbi had hesitated greatly before entering the area, a natural water spring used by local Palestinian villagers, and called upon the IOF for protection.
The heroes Samer Al-Arabid, Yazan Mughamis, Qassam Al-Barghouti, Nizam Amter, and Walid Hanatsheh defied this illusion of protection, targeting the settlers strolling through land not theirs.
The operation was a significant blow, not just in terms of its immediate impact, but in its broader implications. It shattered the myth of the recently unveiled "israeli"-American "deal of the century," upending the occupation's plans for expansion and theft of Palestinian resources. The resistance demonstrated that even in the heart of Ramallah, a symbol of the PA's security cooperation, the spirit of armed struggle is alive.
This was not the first time that Ein Bubin witnessed the fire of resistance. The spring situated west of Ramallah is a microcosm of the larger struggle: In 2015, fighter and prisoner Mohammed Abu Shahin carried out a shooting operation there, killing a settler and wounding another. Zionists renamed it "Ein Dani" after the killed settler, but his memorial has been repeatedly destroyed by local Palestinians.
The Ein Bubin operation also highlighted the technical expertise and organizational capacity of the PFLP, which was and still is feared by the IOF. The occupation, hoping this was an isolated incident, soon realized that this was part of a larger, organized cell. Their panic was palpable as they resorted to brutal interrogation techniques and torture against the five comrades, but failed to break their resolve. The IOF abducted 40 Palestinians, mostly students and activists, and tortured many. In this time, the cell carried out two more shooting operations.
Samir Arabid and Walid Hanatsheh were subjected to extreme torture, with Samir's bones broken and Walid's legs and feet turning black due to abuse in 23-hour-long daily interrogations. Samir, accused of leading the cell, lost his hearing and suffered from kidney failure due to torture. Walid, along with Secretary-General Ahmed Saadat, was subjected to isolation and prison transfers in the summer of 2023 following the "Beitar Illit" operation.
More broadly, the "Ein Bubin" operation was a direct challenge to the socio-political order imposed by the occupation and its collaborators, at a time when operations were less frequent. The heroes reminded the world that the struggle for Palestine is not just about land but about dignity, identity, and the right to resist oppression. As the occupation escalated its efforts to crush the resistance, it became clear that the "Ein Bubin" operation had a greater impact, reigniting the spirit of resistance in a time of despair and proving the will to fight could not be extinguished by years of occupation or by the illusions of peace processes.
Further, the operation is a model of the revolutionary student fighter. In honor of the operation, the PFLP's student bloc at Birzeit announced heroic prisoner Yazan Mughamis as its chairman last year, as he was its Deputy Secretary in 2019. This coincided with a commemoration of the operation, where its heroes were honored under the model of "Intellect and Rifle."
The five heroes, their homes demolished by the IOF, now endure the occupation’s prisons, serving life sentences for their heroic acts, undeterred. Their legacy, however, proves that resistance is a continuous benefit, as students, fighters, and workers vow to continue their path.
