To hope you find new content. YouTube had been putting random low watch count videos in my feed. I never click on them because of their low view count. The thumbsnails make them look like they're high quality videos. Without the view count I have no idea if they have 1,000 views or millions. They're hoping I will click on them, subscribe, and spend more time in the app.
