Stop clicking on click-bait, you're doing it to yourself.
Watch only "boring" / serious channels and you won't have that problem. That's what I do and I get great recommendations (tons of numberphile, computerphile, 3blue1brown, pbs space time, finance and economics... stuff like that).
- mekoka 4y agoThe like/dislike ratio is a universal indicator. Serious/boring channels are not immune to the side effects of its disappearance. It affects every one across the board. Here comes a 20 minutes video on Dynamic Programming and I have no idea what other people really thought of the teacher's ability to get the point across.
- fold3 4y agoit's true, but it's hard, you only need to click once on a clickbait video out of curiosity and you'll be flooded with garbage until you reset your whole youtube history. I switched to individious/piped and newpipe since for a more quiet youtube experience.
- cuteboy19 4y agoYou need to be very aggressive against this, dislike and don't recommend every bit of garbage you see otherwise you will be flooded with it
- marcosdumay 4y agoHum... Maybe you didn't notice all the frenezy, but you can't dislike something anymore. I'm not a very active user, but I think there is no positive "don't show me stuff like this again" action you can do anymore.
- cuteboy19 4y agoThe public dislike count was removed. Dislikes are still counted and presumably affect recommendation
- wildrhythms 4y agoYou need to prune your suggestions by clicking the three-dot menu on the suggested item and "Don't recommend video". I started this last year and after a week my suggestions cleaned up and are absolutely relevant and high quality to my interests.
