Comment on Why Youtube's recommendations are now days are weird and possible solutions to the issues

I’m back to subbing to my favorite creators because the algorithm is so fucking random for the pas weeks. Nothing even makes sense.
I don’t know if that was their intention or not, but the YT homepage is now worthless to me

Yeah, I've been doing this for a couple years, since recommendations became useless. At least 50% of recommendations are things I've already seen (and I do have history turned on). I also use SmartTubeNext, which let's me filter out shorts.

SmartTube is so much better than the official app. Same for Revanced
