YouTube does not care about the audio or video quality itself. It only cares about the numbers of views, likes, etc.

This is true of any platform to be honest. You could be a terrible writer and still do well on sites like Medium or Substack. Be a terrible musician and do well on Spotify or SoundCloud. Be a terrible artist and do well on all sorts of platforms.

Whether people like it or not, the production values involved in a piece of work have only the loosest correlation to whether it'll do well.

Youtube cares about click through ratio on the thumbnail + % of total video watched more than everything else combined.

Quality is pretty subjective. They try to quantify what people like (or rather what people will watch).
