I fucked up my algo watching animal grooming and cute cat videos. Funny enough something I like to watch because it's soothing has turned into something that ruins my day.
Kind of fucked that people are using animal abuse for clicks.

In order to use YouTube I need:
DF YouTube (Distraction Free) - no sidebar, no recommendations at the end of the video
Clickbait Remover for Youtube - thumbnails are a couple seconds into the video, titles are in all lower case
Hide shorts for Youtube™
ClearURLs - gets rid of tracking from URLs
Decentraleyes - I'm not positive but I'm pretty sure I need it
uBlockOrigin - ad blocker that you can also use to delete elements that it misses otherwise
SponsorBlock for YouTube - Skip Sponsorships
Shit is fucking crazy, comrade
Unhook replaces the function of DF and Hide Shorts, in addition to a few more nice options for hiding algo-slop. would highly recommend it! also Dearrow, which was made by the developer of SponsorBlock. it does the same thing as Clickbait Remover, but with added customization and community submitted replacements.
Just installed them. Didn't realize how much I was advertised to in the home page
Omg ty for compiling this list, I need it so bad
