Youtube does not order search results correctly, for which there are only two root cause explanations available: they are halfwits, or they are assholes. For many years I assumed the latter, but these days I’m equivocal, so maybe it’s both.

It's actually insane, I can't find anything with more than 5 views for some terms (as in it only shows videos with no views when searching topics which i know are popular). I mostly assume that their management is so awful that different departments somehow make things completely unusable every now and then.
