What happens if you start actively pressing to dislike on every video you didn't want to get recommended to you?

What happens if you start actively pressing to dislike on every video you didn't want to get recommended to you?
- acdha 6y agoIt’ll eventually get a little better but it takes a LOT of repetition. For example, after the gamer tantrum a few years ago anything remotely related (e.g. some designer’s talk - dry, non-provocative) would queue a bunch of anti-feminist “reaction” rants and it took many dozens of dislikes before that would stop after watching one video in the area. Science topics were similar - the angry reactionary side of the new atheism movement presumably has equal engagement numbers so the algorithm really wants you to settle in for some ad views.
