Only engage with things you want to see more of. Downvoting and Not Interested are both forms of engagement.
Engagement metrics allow YouTube to show advertisers that you're actually looking at the page and not just letting it run in the background
I don't down vote, just "not interested"
I can see that being exactly how YouTube is thinking, "if they're too busy hate-blocking that means their eyes are glued to the screen!"
Instead of click Not Interested, I recommend igoring them. It might take a few days or even a week, but I they should start to disappear from your feed
Is that conceptually asinine? Absolutely... But it's your best bet
I'd love a youtube replacement with decent recommendations based on viewer satisfaction, not "is this making money"
Buuuuut here we are, having to try to ignore the shittiness hoping boomer-bully-logic will work and it'll just go away...
We'll see how well ignoring it works. At least most of my subscriptions have playlist I can tap through
The not interested doesn't work, the don't recommend me videos from this channel works perfectly, and if the first video I get recommended of a channel is so repulsive to me I actually care to do something about it, the entire channel is probably bad anyways.
