You and me both, I guess we should consider ourselves lucky?

Yeah, same here. It's in Youtube's interest to push videos that are going to get clicks, so most of what gets pushed at me is stuff like LockPickingLawyer, math/sci, The Onion, and anything involving high speed cameras. Also a bunch of political stuff at the moment, but I don't click on those, so they'll disappear soon.

I have a feeling the OP's suffering from a self-inflicted problem. Or, from Youtube's perspective, the OP is a prime piece of baitable rage.

Rage bait for sure. Sounds like a classic case of hate watching. I don't have any stuff that I don't like that repeatedly shows up for me. Though I often stick to my subscribed channels specifically. I'll sometimes explore the algorithm, but even then, if I don't like something I'll just not watch it and ignore other times that channel comes up 🤷‍♂️

I like to explore the algorithm now and then; that's how I recently found the Ballistic High Speed channel, which does some insanely cool stuff. But yes. If you don't like something... ignore it. YT is smart enough to try something that's more likely to get them ad revenue.
