Similarly, my YouTube shorts are filled with gambling videos and “get rich quick scheme” videos. Seems as though “do not recommend channel” blocks the channel but assumes you have some growing interest in the topic.

I just want to watch woodworking shorts and plumbing videos T_T

I just got an extension that removes shorts. I tried blocking channels, saying I wasn't interested, pressing the thumbs down button, but it would still show trash like Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate.
