My recommendation is to start with these four addons:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hbomb-youtube-censorship-addon/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sponsorblock/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/remove-youtube-shorts/
Delete garbage and random videos that are unlike your normal watching (especially hate watch videos linked from here or social media), and then just be aggressive about hitting the Don't Recommend Channel every single time you see something you dislike on the sidebar and homepage.
i have ublock, the other three sound promising though
it's super weird, I was watching a video on Israeli war crimes and then fuckin BAM the sidebar was all kids content and YouTube movies
my homepage is fine and normal, but the sidebar is still the same shit, and it's like the same set list of videos too so i think it's just broken
i clicked not interested for all of them and the list changed to just another list of kids stuff so hopefully the add-ons will help
