I really wish there was a way to exclude certain videos from their feed recommendation engine. Or at least put them in a different category. If someone sends me a particularly funny cat video, because it is their cat, I really don't want to get a deluge of cat videos. Also, if you are playing videos for your 2-year-old, those shouldn't influence the playlists that come up when you are driving to work (the Gummy Bears videos keep popping up in my 80's playlists).
- freetonik 9y agoYou can click on three dots and select "Not interested". This works for videos, playlists and topics in your feed.

- derekp7 9y agoExcept that I am interested, if I happen to be playing videos for the kid. I could create another account, but I'm not sure how to tie additional youtube accounts to the youtube red service. And I'd have to remember to switch accounts before playing videos for him (they should introduce "listening profiles", and have the ability to move certain instances of watching a video to a specific profile).
- DiThi 9y agoI do that by right clicking a video -> open in private window. Works wonders for click baity videos that you're likely to regret if it affected recomendations.
