Question 20 : YouTube comments

YouTube is a 16 year, multi-billion app where you can binge watch videos from any where in the world until you fall asleep. 

If you are like me who watches memes, animals doing dumb stuff and watching grown men scream like high pitched anime girls, then you know how entertaining it is. 

Especially when you binge watch in the middle of night and you fall asleep then YouTube decides to take you to the dark side of it and then things get pretty weird. 

They even ripped off TikTok and called it YouTube shorts just for you, the viewer, to get hooked on the app more. 

But with every single video or short there is something that you go to look at other people's opinions. 

And those are called comments. And you can even like them too if you want but the dislike button don't work so don't even bother trying it. 

And at the top of each comment section there is a top comment.....

Question : How is the top comment determined ?? 

Is it determined by how many replies or by how many likes? 

Is it determined by the date it was published or by how long it took to get popular? 

We will never unless YouTube tells us, 🤔
