    I get so many YT recommendations about her because I watch NBA content and it’s all so unhinged, like she’s not reading from a script and beholden to producers. People have a bizarre and unhealthy obsession with her.

      I got the same problem. I’m a history buff but if I watch three videos about, say, the Civil War in a row my recommendations get clogged up with Joe Rogan and gun reviews. I have to watch like seven baking videos to balance it out.

        The trick is to watch in incognito mode any topic that is not usually in your feed. Otherwise, YT will throw every video related to the new topic hoping that you’ll get into a rabbit hole.

        Yeah… I can’t count the number of times I’ve had to down vote Ben Shaprio videos to stop getting alt/right and MRA videos recommended to me.
