we’re making updates to better match how people discover trending content today by shifting away from one all-encompassing Trending list towards category-specific charts that we’ll continue to invest in over time.
Get rid of Shorts.
They might, once it becomes too flooded with AI slop.
Shorts are annoying, but now they started cluttering the subscription page with community posts.
It’s bad, but especially when you browse in landscape Mode on a phone. They get blown up so big you have to scroll like 3 pages for one post, and there’s a lot of them.
And they will stay on your page forever and wont go away. No option to click them away at all.
Shorts (as a format) aren’t the problem, it’s what you watch. If you train the algorithm to serve you garbage, then of course it’s gonna serve you garbage ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I literally never watch shorts. I’ve selected the option to show less shorts on my computer, I select the not interested option on each individual video on my TV when the row of them shows up, and they still constantly come back.
Use browser plug-ins and revanced.
The trending page stopped being worth looking at once it shifted away from actual trending content. That content was replaced with ad friendly corporate videos like Kimmel and family vloggers you’ve never heard of.
When you’re logged out the main page is blank. It’s glorious. Thanks EU!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
they doing that to stop all the scrapers like newpipe from “working”.
shit is hilarious.
fuck you Google.
Could that be the first actual improvement in years?
I’m sure they’re gonna replace it with something even more asinine but my god, the trending page was always just a cesspool of the absolute worst content on YouTube (with a few exceptions every now and then).
Ahh yes, the brainrot feed.
Good. Can my Watch Later list please be the most important item I see when I go there?
Does this mean I will have to scroll even more if I want to go to a specific channel I am subscribed to? All i want on the left is History and the list of channels I am subscribed to.
Yeah, cover your shame.
Logged out YouTube was covered up a few years ago.
I’ve never used that feature…
