  • The left has a tiktok with multiple videos playing at the same time in order to increase the average watch time of every viewer so it goes further in the algorithm.

    The right has the news combined with other news things at the same time (in order to increase watch time as well I assume)

    OP makes the revelation that both are doing the same. Namely adding more content in small windows in order to increase watchtime.

    This is funny because it’s generally considered low quality (as I consider it low quality and therefore everyone does) and the news doing the same means that said news is also low quality and probably should be avoided.

    It depends on your definition of rigged. There are many “provably fair” online casinos where they use hashes and user generated seeds that influence the outcome such that it makes it 100% verifiably fair but you will still lose over time because the house edge. If you call the house edge “rigged” then offline gambling is equally rigged
