She’s almost 70, spend all day watching q-anon style of videos (but in Spanish) and every day she’s anguished about something new, last week was asking us to start digging a nuclear shelter because Russia was dropped a nuclear bomb over Ukraine. Before that she was begging us to install reinforced doors because the indigenous population were about to invade the cities and kill everyone with poisonous arrows. I have access to her YouTube account and I’m trying to unsubscribe and report the videos, but the reccomended videos keep feeding her more crazy shit.
How does revanced remove the algorithm stuff? I have been using it for a long time but never saw this feature
I don’t know for sure, because I actually like my algorithmic recommendations on YT (I’ve done a good job of carefully curating it to show me a good stuff). But if I had to guess, I’d say it removes “related videos” from its watch page, and removes the “home” tab. So it will show search results and subscriptions, but not the general algorithmic content.
There should be a patch for it that hides the “recommended” feed in the homepage. I’m not certain because I never use Youtube with an account or the official website/app, so I don’t get targeted recommendations.
