I almost never watch "shorts" but my suggestions for it seem to have an...uhhh...adult theme. I don't watch any such thing with YouTube. Does everyone see garbage like this?

    This is what I wanted to comment. I added this list and it works like a charm.

    I was getting side tracked by these YouTube shorts all the time and it started becoming an issue. They are too addictive and mostly just void.

    Depends where you're YouTubing. I believe the main solutions are browser extensions and app mods.

    App mods work fine. It's just sad that "making the best product to the user" has very obviously not been the priority for many many years.

    You'd think these settings should be available to the user, right? Nope. This is from a modded version.
