Do you tell youtube that you've seen this video before? Usually after 5/6 of these it starts serving new stuff again.

- kevincox 5y agoI do sometimes but it doesn't seem to help. Roughly a third of the videos have a progress bar underneath (usually complete or nearly so) so YouTube knows that I have seen them.
- neom 5y agoYou have to be aggresive about it for it to work. It totally bogles my mind that youtube doesn't have a toggle for this, I get recommending things I've seen before, my wife loves it, I must have seen her watch the same youtube video 300 times, she doesn't explore youtube she just wants the same set of 50 videos recommended to her over and over again, this has been a pretty common observation I've made... people like this... so then make it a toggle for people who don't.
