I'm a simple guy. When I see boobs, I click on it.

After doing this for a few weeks now my Youtube feed is nothing but videos like this. I mean I still watch a lot of gaming, music, sports, and news videos but seems like all Youtube wants to feed me is more and more boobs.











How do I get my Youtube back to "normal" again?

 

[Synless]

Delete the account and start over.

 

[AJUMP23]

Ban user Delete thread.

 

[Mistake]

I use freetube on my pc, so I don’t really have this issue anymore. On mobile I don’t use an account, but the same thing will happen if I don’t delete my cookies

 

[HoodWinked]

no one else to blame but yourself.

 

[InterMusketeer]

Delete the videos from your history on your YouTube account. If similar videos are recommended click on the little dots menu next to the title and click "don't recommend (channel)." I habitually open sketchy videos on incognito tabs.

Just start searching for pet stuff like dogs or cats and youtube will gladly turn your homepage into a cuteness overload dispenser.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

YouTube is not the site I go to to see bobs. And I delete from my watch history anything untoward that might skew the algorithm.

 

[Javthusiast]

Normal?

This is normal.

 

[Droxcy]

Lol what

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Thanks for the recommendation

 

[Javthusiast]

Lol what

Tits my friend, tits.

 

[Jennings]

Hot damn those are nice tits. But I hate teases. Off to Pornhub.

 

[Trunx81]

Dann you algorithms! Same on TikTok.

 

[MayauMiao]

I look at the likes/dislikes ratio before I play the video. Helps if I remove unwanted videos from my history. Blocking misleading channels also helped

lol That's where I'm at on a more or less permanent basis. In the past, though, there was some less cute stuff showing up (eg. snake swallows animal whole! - picture in thumbnail) and I had to do the stuff InterMusketeer recommended to get it to stop.

Have you considered not being a weird pervert?

This is what private browsing was made for

You should see the yoga videos....they are something else.

Yeah a couple showed up on my feed too. I tried not to click on them.

Theres also the massage videos and breast feeding videos. Its weird that youtube doesnt ban any of this stuff.

I don't remember what I was searching but I got tons of results showing pornographic thumbnails.

Just imagine the amount of videos uploaded every second, probably there is an small window where some fucked up videos are available.

 

[Quasicat]

Not only for YouTube, but I turned off all tracking software and turned off targeting ads across the board, and this is what I get from Google ads on NeoGAF:

When I researched on why I’m getting this here and no place else, it says that non-targeted ads are dependent on the website. . I think I need to turn ad tracking back on.

 

[Trogdor1123]

I’m not falling for that trick to click those. I’ll stick with my warhammer, science, and grifters thank you

 

[Lasha]

Turn off your history and recommendations. You will get the "generic" feed based on your subscriptions and a gestalt of what is popular overall. I turned off the tracking features a few years ago and it's been great. Far less time spent on YouTube and I have seen so many interesting videos I would never have considered locked into the Algo.

 

[GymWolf]

My youtube has been super fucking slow for the past months, like half the times it looks like it doesn't want to load a search or the page, any solution??

For the OP, can't you just search for korean porn like a normal pervert??

 

[reksveks]

I am getting more of the 'grievance related' videos.

We did fuck ourselves over as a species by gaming engagement via negative headlines/titles/clickbait.

I really want to create a LAL model to block this twitter handles/YouTube channel.

 

[Spukc]

Bobs

 

[FunkMiller]

Why on earth are you looking at YouTube for boobs when PornHub exists?

 

[GymWolf]

Edit

 

[Goalus]

My feed is full of these:





It started quite harmless, when I clicked on a video by TheQuartering every now and then during the "Brie Larson era". The system seemed to notice and subsequently recommended me Ryan Kinel - whom I find a lot more entertaining and consequently watched a lot more. Then, during the Heard Depp lawsuit the system assumed (correctly) that I would probably like That Umbrella Guy, and I watched a lot of his videos just because of his hilarious thumbnails. I admire that he seems to be able to constantly find new pictures of Amber where she makes another sad/hateful/awkward facial expression.

I usually watch carwow and other channels that deal with personal finance and electric cars - those seem to have completely vanished from my feed.

 

[Punished Miku]

Mostly news, workout videos and scientific lectures for me. Weird!

[OmegaSupreme]

I don't see the problem. Looks like a perfectly healthy feed to me.
