It mainly has to do with the title changing
The algorithm does that whenever parts of a video change, whether it be the title or the thumbnail
It did it to me aswell
The title has been 100% accurate every time I’ve clicked on this video
cause he changes the title lmao
Yes, he's changed it millions of times. It's why he retired. It's all he does@@sophiebryant2388

It has to be, because otherwise if a video was uploaded at the beginning of youtube the title would need to be updated about 7000 times a day
