Eric Siu's recent video got filtered by YouTube's algorithm despite solid production. The title "can OpenCLAW and Claude code actually replace humans?" triggered the crackdown on sensationalist headlines. YouTube's latest update is punishing clickbait packaging, even when the content delivers.
So this is the first time my YouTube got filtered. It really didn't like one of my titles. I had a video come out on Monday. I'm like, dude, the click-through rate's 9% and it's not getting any traffic. And I'm like, what the heck is going on? So the title was, can OpenCLAW and Claude code actually replace humans? Right? Because there's an algorithm update that happened, I think this month, where YouTube hates sensationalist headlines. And I'm like, what's going on? 9% click-through rate. And then I'm like, oh, I got filtered. So just a flag for everyone. If you're doing YouTube, they're really cracking down on the sensationalist headlines and the packaging now.
