Errrgh. X@/¿*!x video links

So, a few days back I clicked on a video link in one of the threads here. Now YouTube keeps recommending Mormon videos. Today it suggested I watch a stream of general conference.

I wonder how many more times I'll have to mark NOT INTERESTED and DO NOT LIKE THIS VIDEO before YouTube's algorithms will understand.

In the meantime, no more link clicking for me.

Pinterest started sending me mormon stuff by the tons. I unsubscribed and found a field to explain why.

I never click on the links here, unless there's an explanation of what the link is to. If a link is simply dropped, I pass on by.

Whee, now it will recommend all sorts of other things I'm not interested in.

Game of Thrones? Nope.

Golf? Nope.

Fishing? Nope.

Britain's Got Talent? Nope.

Makeup? Nope.

...


I guess I'll need to know what I do want to watch and search for it.
