I wish Susie Dent would leave me alone.
That's funny 'cos you can literally just choose not to view content from anyone you hate. You have all of the tools available to you to block anything and everyone you don't want to see, but you'd rather complain in a comment for other people to see?
Leave me alone.
I take this chance to complain that you can not block YouTube channels.
i don't do smartphones, but i have this site bookmarked for other things and found these instructions there for the yt app: android and iphone/ios
for computers, there are third-party addons to add functionality to youtube's web site. some provide point-and-click blocking functionality.
third-party apps, as long as they're still 'allowed', may also have the extra functionality you're looking for.
Freetube you can filter out channels by title. It’s a bit manual, but you can do it.
Boo!
Has she done problematic shit or something? I thought it was just the obnoxious blonde lady who was a dictionary corner bigot.
Oh no! what has she done that's bigoted? (I did a quick search and couldn't find anything).
I enjoy her word nerdery so I'd be disappointed to find out she's iffy.
The obnoxious dictionary corner blonde is Rachel Riley, who very much is problematic.
As far as I can tell,Susie D is A OK, but that commenter may know stuff we don't or idk, just doesn't like her or something.
Wow just looked that up and that sucks, always enjoyed her on cats does countdown
Oooh sorry that was a reading comprehension fail on my part. Thank you for clarifying!
