Topical matching
Matching creators by subject as well as audience size, so attention arrives from plausible viewers rather than from anyone available.
A recommendation system builds its picture of who a video suits from who engaged with it. Attention from people with no interest in the subject teaches it something false, which is why volume without topic is self-defeating even when nobody is caught.
On PodSwap, follower bracket outranks subject and subject outranks everything else, on both platforms.
