I think I read somewhere that the majority of views typically come from videos being recommended on users’ home pages. That is the reason why content creators focus so much on the youtube algorithm, since if their videos don’t get recommended, they don’t get as many views.

(I haven’t watched the linked video, so that may be exactly what they talk about)

theres a plugin called hardtime.nvim that does almost exactly what you have described. It goes a bit further and actually prevents you from doing certain things if you meet a threshold (like spamming j to go down a bunch if lines instea d of something like 15j to move 15 lines down)
