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?

FYI: when you disable YouTube history it'll disable recommendations too
My issue with that is that then you see default youtube, which is also terrible.
It looks like this:
oh, I've never used this official mobile app for youtube. I was talking about the desktop version.
edit: They must have changed something. Previously, no login desktop youtube just had the most bottom of the barrel clickbait shit that appealed the ipad kids.
Stop threatening me with a good time.
Sort of. It pretends to disable recommendations, but things like shorts that show up in feeds a related videos are still skewed toward you. They just disable the ability to really scroll through them to try to encourage you to turn it back on. You can trust their profile on you is still kept up-to-date ;)
