I do really wish I could tell Netflix about things I never want to watch.
- JensRex 9y agoI want this so bad. Right now, Netflix thinks I want to watch animated christmas movies for kids. If that's what it comes up with after looking at my ratings and watch history, their algorithm is fundamentally broken.
- ajmurmann 9y agoI think they will never implement it. If all the shit and stuff you've already watched was filtered out and every movie was only listed ones you'd likely see a fairly empty page.
- michaelmior 9y agoI think there's a large enough repository that there would always be something to show. Why wouldn't Netflix prefer to show me things I might want to watch (even if it's a low probability) over things I said I definitely don't want to watch. For me, I think it basically just reduces my engagement. If my recommendations are filled with things I've already decided I don't want to see, I'll just go do something else.
