Is "not interested" unhelpful? It seems to at least prevent the same video, and often the same channel, from being recommended again.

- DaveDroll 7y agoTo me, the problem is how easy Youtube will increase your engagement with channels/topics and how difficult they make it to decrease engagement. The "not interested" dialogue is under the three dot menu, but "watch later" and add to playlist are immediately available when you are highlighting the video. On that same topic, when you watch one video on some one-off issue e.g. fixing a car issue, home improvement, YouTube will keep showing similar videos
