This is a very popular YouTube format and I hate it
- WorldMaker 8y agoI finally noticed that "Not Interested" is an option in the YouTube recommendations' qebab menus (vertical ellipsis ⋮) to immediately hide the suggestion, and since discovering that have been very happy to use that on all clickbait titles, including just about every usage of the word RUINED. It might mean that I'm slowly getting better recommendations, but it mostly means that at least for the periods of time that the recommendations are on screen I'm not staring at a bunch of dumb negative words and things that don't interest me. I'm still close to using a browser extension to disable the recommendations system entirely as useless garbage to me, but at least this one tool helps some.
