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?

Are you using the app? Are you logged in?

Ask yourself why, then log out, delete the app, and go watch on a browser without logging in.

Or if you have to use an app, try Smarttube or something similar. Without logging in.

When I’m logged in, the few shorts they show me tend to be from channels I’m subscribed too. If I go to the homepage incognito (back when they still showed you stuff when you rejected their terms) it was mostly either shock value, expensive stuff, sexualised stuff, sports. So lowest common denominator stuff, I guess.

My Instagram and Threads feeds are like that. Not YouTube.

I haven’t actively used Facebook since I was in high school, and recently scrolling through my feed it’s not even softcore it’s straight up p*rn!

example (NSFW obviously)

I keep hiding these posts & they don’t stop appearing… I wish I could tell Facebook I’m not a perpetually online horny teenager anymore. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
