Hi lemmy,
youtube served me this survey today (english translation): "Which of the following issues have you encountered on the YouTube homepage today?
*The page is confusing
*I want to remove a video, but I don't know how to do it
*I couldn't find a particular livestream
*The "Do not recommend videos from this channel" menu option does not work
*Other problem
*None of them / not sure"
Which is funny, because I noticed when I blocked a "right wing propaganda" channel the other day in the YT shorts section it just skipped the video and played another one from the same channel.
Disclaimer: All anecdotal evidence, I can't prove a thing, but even just the idea of me not being able to stop shitty recommendations pains me.
WTF Youtube. Stop that shit.
Edit: Minor Format tweak.
YouTube is getting worse real fast.
They even deleted the "sort by old videos" button to force people to watch new videos. Sometimes I just want to watch old videos and have to scroll for minutes to find old videos because you know, they don't load unless you scroll past the newer videos.
And why can't I drag the timeline of shorts?
Insanity.
The "sort by old" option has returned. Not sure when, but I started noticing it came back about a week ago.
I used it probably a month ago, too.
