ublock origin helps with the ad problem but yea ive been using it much less recently as well. there used to be a point where i would get good recommendations on the homepage but all that shows up is trash these days. i think i must have clicked on 1 short trashy video once and now google thinks thats what im really into. its similar to how annoying it is to use spotify these days and having to be really careful what you play otherwise the suggestions get messed up. or maybe it's that nudging people to watch more short videos make youtube more ad money. i would rather they just went back to showing you videos from your most popular subscriptions and then a few good recommendations
