Currently in the US elections are featured in my YouTube feed, and not factual content but rage inducing.

How can I filter that?

    I have the exact opposite advice lol

    Edit: privacy aside, it does work. YT shows rage inducing content because it wants engagement more than anything. My algorithm is so trained now that it can show me stuff I’ll actually enjoy and want to engage with and therefore it doesn’t bother showing me that crap

      Exactly! There should be a browser extension for training YouTube’s algorithm and even other ones. I’ve been very comitted to never feeding that beast after midnight, so I thoroughly enjoy content thatd positive as much as I want.
