Am I the only one whose "shorts" feed is all basically softcore porn?

Lol that algorithm has you in that demo for a reason I’m sure. Not sure I would’ve asked this publicly.

Also, who’s is a contraction of “who is” or “who has”. You want the possessive “whose”

Not sure I would’ve asked this publicly.

At this point I think everyone knows that everyone else does the same thing.

There’s plenty of extensions to block shorts entirely. I’m on YouTube for a good reason. If I was interested in under 10min videos I’d be elsewhere.

I just deactivated recommendations completely. If I want to watch something new, I’ll just use certain search terms.

You can also just block element with uBlock to get rid of it, no need for an additional extension.

My facebook reels are worse than that - endless girls shaken their boobs and ass at me. Most of them look extremely fake and enhanced with AI to make everything bigger. Often there will be a split second scene in the clip (too short to be caught by the censorship system?) of something pornographic. Seems like most of the girls have an Onlyfans.

I don't watch porn or browse thirst traps on instagram or anything. It's nuts.

Mine is like 50% vids from people I mildly dislike and 50% Vtubers. I think there is really just not very much good short content.

Edit: To clarify, I’m not anti-Vtuber, I’m just not convinced that a 30 second clip from a livestream counts as good short content. The only high quality shorts channels I’m aware of are Tom Bates (who produces Nigel and Marmalade, a series about a tiny wizard and his dog-horse best friend) and Natural Habitat Shorts (funny animations about anthro animals, based on real animal facts).

Issue is if you accidentally watch one it will Keep getting recommended, it happened to me with the Dexter TV show.

Keep selecting don’t recommend this channel and maybe watch something else?

Mine is entirely alt right “comedians” and helldivers 2. I’m pretty sure the algorithm thinks I wholeheartedly endorse the SuperEarth ideology.

With shorts, yes. I don’t really watch shorts tho. Their suggestions for horizontal videos are mostly news, cars, robots, and woodworking.

First, why do you even have a shorts feed? Get rid of that trash. Second, stop clicking on porn and it’ll stop recommending you porn.

Everythingispenguins , 2 months ago

But how are you going to watch porn if you don’t click on it /s

Gabu , 2 months ago

Psst. There are other sites where that’s also available, for free, with better quality.

That’s a big part of the complaint. I’ve certainly never used YouTube for porn. It’s annoying in general but it’s not a good place for porn so all they’re doing is making it more annoying for any other use

A funny dude from Berlin, Grady from Practical Engineering explaining how a dam remains stable, classic cars, electric car test and of course Hydraulic Press Channel.
