I always downvote, then block the channel whenever I get those. However, I think the mere act of going to the button to block the channel instead of just scrolling on immediately is telling the algorithm that I want more of that kind of video.

Watching a bit of breadtube stuff, I feel like thr algorithm can't determine what video is against stuff like that and what's for, so I get recommended videos for whatever I don't like instead of against.
