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!)
i forgot about disliking videos and channels! That might fix my problem right away. THank you
Also, you can tell YT to never recommend a channel. It's permanent (can't undo) but well worth the use.
I think if you sub then unsub it resets that block if you do it by mistake
