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?

MODERATORS
I do have a PiHole. Why would that change the recommendations?
I have no idea but I experience the same problem with small set of repeating shorts when on my home wifi network.
If I disconnect my phone from the wifi and use mobile internet instead, it often starts working better with YouTube Shorts.
Edit: my comment was about the set of shorts repeating and not why the algorithm choose sexy shorts for you.
Perhaps if their ad services (googleadservices.com, doubleclick) have something to do with it, but I frankly doubt it.
