Am I the only one whose "shorts" feed is all basically softcore porn? (lemmy.world)

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?

Bro you should have investigated the actual answer to this question before asking it publicly 😃

It's not to say you're watching lots of soft core porn but the algorithm has definitely decided that you'll like it

The irony is if I had real control over the shorts I'd actually sometimes watch them. But currently YT is trying to force them on me, with no control over which shorts I watch.

YouTube revanced let's you disable shorts permanently. Fuck those useless videos, designed to get you addicted. I'm fairly sure consuming too many shorts irreparably damages the brain. Don't quote me on that but people just stopped fact checking because it takes longer than 20 seconds.
