I already spend much less time on YT since they butchered their recommendations. Now I‘ll think twice before clicking on a video, so I very much welcome this change. Just as you can watch incredible videos about every topic on YouTube, you can waste hours watching junk. To me, this change is a great incentive not to do the latter.
- wildrhythms 4y agoI don't have this problem with my suggestions, but that's because I deliberately and constantly prune bad suggestions with the "Not interested" option. Maybe it's a placebo, but since starting that crusade I've found my recommendations to be very topical and relevant for me. I also make sure I open any videos that might 'pollute' my suggestions in a private browsing window.
