[quote=Galactic Traveler][quote=AgrippinaX]I plan to do something I haven’t done in a while and spend the whole day at the movies, maybe go to two-three different local cinemas, but finally catch up on everything I haven’t seen.[/quote]

Sounds like a lot of fun!  Let us know how it went![/quote]

[quote=FilmBuff][quote=Yoda]The YouTube algorithm is responsive to a fault. If you watch one "new" thing it'll pretty much immediately give you more to see if you wanna keep at it. But it stops pretty quick if you don't or if you thumbs down them.[/quote]

A long time ago I decided the only sane thing to do was to *constantly* clear the watch history and the search history.

There is no other way[/quote]

But it stops pretty quick if you don't or if you thumbs down them.[/quote] It's too immediately responsive. That is, if I watch something new, say, a music video from a band performing in a genre I don't usually watch (listen), I immediately get more recommendations of this sort. Ignoring the recs doesn't always work, unfortunately. Maybe I indeed need to resort to thumbing them all down, or choosing I'm not interested in that content, but it's a hassle.[/quote]

[quote=Mr Minio][quote=FilmBuff][quote=Mr Minio]why the hell am I getting anti-vaxx stuff on my feed? Does YouTube think I'm a tin foiler?[/quote]

Have you been watching anything that a tin foiler might conceivably watch?[/quote]
Yeah, watched some videos on abortion, but that's it.[/quote]

[quote=Sedai]No, just the big pharma shill videos, I am guessing.[/quote]
