There are millions of youtube videos uploaded every single day. Why do I always get the exact same stuff in my recommendations? And why does YouTube shorts keep playing the same clips over and over again? Even the ones I disliked.

You should never dislike on YouTube. They just view it as engagement and will give it you more. To actually get rid of content that you don't like, you need to use "not interested" in the context menu.

This drove me crazy for a long time.

Good to know. I need to see of there's a way to do it on youtube shorts.
