    Yep. The suggestion algorithm is way too aggressive. Keep in mind you can remove individual videos from your watch history.

        I think maybe it’s geared towards people who watch more YouTube. I never have any single topic take over my entire homepage, literally ever. I even watched a balatro video like two weeks ago and I got two tiles on my homepage that showed balatro. But I also watch a lot of YouTube, so any one video doesn’t change much about my watch patterns. Last year my wife decided we were suddenly going to be watching videos about using turkey calls, and we watched about ten of them in a row and then I was getting a good number of recommendations for turkey shit, but still nothing like OP’s homepage.

          I watch a lot of YouTube and my experience contradicts yours. Watch one dog video and suddenly it’s nothing but dog videos.
