Do your kids use to click on that lowball content maybe? My Shorts and all the recommendations are focused about what do I really use to watch. I do not want to watch Shorts at all, to be honest, but at least they seems to be really interesting. For achieving this level of quality of the recommendations, sometimes I use to "watch" in a background tab with no sound some videos from [1] for letting Youtube think about me as a little bit smarter than I actually am.
> Youtube ads
Why not to learn your kid about how to use adblockers and/or discuss why adwares from Internet are so bad?

- dyingkneepad 4y agoWhen I show them something on Youtube, the phone is always in my hands. They don't get to click on anything, I never give them unsupervised access to Youtube. Also, they're too young to even think about clicking those butts. Regarding ads, yeah I use the Youtube app mostly because it's a better experience than watch on Firefox for Android or using Newpipe. I kinda wanted both to work, but the native app is so much better...
