Do not recommend channel doesnt work. It only pauses recommendations for a few weeks. I've selected do not recommend on channels several times and they still sneak back in.
- dkdcio 10mo agoI highly recommend turning off watch history on YouTube. it stops recommending you videos entirely; just watch what you subscribe to
- AlexErrant 10mo agoI have a dedicated Chrome profile/account for watching videos that I don't want infecting my primary account's recommendations. Right click, "Open link as".
- andrewflnr 10mo agoThis is weird to me. I've banned a bunch of channels and never seen them again. You're not just doing the "I'm not interested" thing, right? I've heard this from a couple other people, though, which makes me wonder if the alleged "don't recommend channel" button is hooked up to different API calls in different UIs...
- AuthAuth 10mo agoI was just doing the "im not interested". How do I fully ban channels?
- andrewflnr 10mo agoAt least in the YouTube app on my Android phone, on the main suggestion feed, there's another option on the same 3-dot menu that is specifically labeled "Don't recommend channel". If you don't see it right there, maybe dig around. Just checked, and I don't see it in the suggestions under a particular video, only on the main feed. I don't know if they're hiding it or what.
