Does YouTube feel different lately? Are you getting recommended content you're not interested in? Maybe even this video? Are you finding YouTube Search to be...
I feel like the algorithm for recommendations hasn’t changed much in years. It’s decent, better than a lot of other recommendation algorithms. The not interested options have always done jack shit. I can’t count how many times I’ve not interested a video and told it I had already watched it. Only for it to consistently recommend me other videos I’ve already watched. You’d think after the 100th time selecting I wasn’t interested in videos I’ve already watched, that it would get the clue.
I like to listen to creepypasta stories when I’m going to sleep, youtube has been insisting on showing me 2 hour long videos about the Decline of ancient cities… how we get from dumb horror stories to the fall of some empire from 500ad is beyond me.

Yeah, not interested doesn’t do much but don’t recommend channel is flawless for me
