Turn off your YT watch history and search history. I've advocated for this on HN for years. Watching one or two AI slop videos won't ruin your recommendations, leaving the algorithm to rely on your likes to find you stuff you'd want to watch.
Now if only YT could fix search and allow me to block Shorts.
- navanchauhan 2y agoWhile not the best solution, I use this userscript to disable shorts— https://github.com/Mr-Comand/youtube-shorts-remover-tampermonkey https://github.com/Mr-Comand/youtube-shorts-remover-tampermo...
- bondarchuk 2y agoThere's also the unhook youtube browser extension.
- visarga 2y agoThose are a cancer on YouTube, they don't offer any way to disable the shit. And on mobile it's even worse, there is a dedicated tab button you can't hide, even if you are a paying customer no way to avoid it.
- lazycouchpotato 2y agoI'll give it a try. Thank you!
