Why are creators churning out absolute garbage? Because trash gets the most clicks. It’s all driven by a massive crowd of free users, and let’s be brutally honest—their taste is just bottom-tier. So when the only metric that matters is engagement, garbage ironically becomes the "winning" content.

I agree with that but it now has the simple benefit of being "not ai-slop" so any real content now has a premium

Back in the day, people actually PAID for content. You bought newspapers, magazines, and books, which is why the quality was usually top-notch.
Today? Publishers are going bankrupt because users just want everything for free. The ones actually paying now are the advertisers.
And here’s the dark truth: from an advertiser's POV, all that trashy, low-quality content is EXACTLY what they want. Why? Because raw clicks are the only metric they care about. More clicks = better ROI, even if the content is pure garbage. The system is literally rigged for trash.
