Currently in the US elections are featured in my YouTube feed, and not factual content but rage inducing.

How can I filter that?

    1. Watch videos you want to see

    2. Click the dots > Not Interested in videos you don’t

    3. Enjoy your tailored feed with only stuff you want to see!

    My YouTube algorithm is fantastic. I never see politics because if I want to watch a political video, I open it in a private window

      I also find that marking stuff with “not interested” works pretty well. Some far right bullshit pops up occasionally but it’s quickly dealt with.

        Yeah, with a small amount of effort you can really make your YouTube feed work for you. I have a main account full of engineering, computers, and misc entertainment (sketch comedy channels + Atrioc) and a separate one for my work laptop that’s just music. Both feeds are pretty fantastic but the recommendations on latter is especially good - I’ve found a ton of new artists including some with only a few hundred followers (shout out to folk singer Alexander Guy!)
