I watched them mindlessly for a while, starting recently. But then the algorithm just started showing me like the same 15 videos and nothing else. One or two new ones here and there, but it’s definitely fully lost any interest I had.
Comment on Am I the only one who's "shorts" feed is all basically softcore porn?

It only seems to show me the same 15-20 shorts since they first started featuring shorts on the main page. They’re relevant to what I watch, but they’re all hella old and I’ve seen the ones that interest me already. IDK why it never updates.

Do you run an adblocker like PiHole or ADGuard on your network?

I do have a PiHole. Why would that change the recommendations?

I have no idea but I experience the same problem with small set of repeating shorts when on my home wifi network.
If I disconnect my phone from the wifi and use mobile internet instead, it often starts working better with YouTube Shorts.

Perhaps if their ad services (googleadservices.com, doubleclick) have something to do with it, but I frankly doubt it.
