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?

I disabled shorts because it's brain-melting garbage, just like TikTok, which its based on.
How do you disable them?
u can hide shorts with uBLOCK. https://github.com/gijsdev/ublock-hide-yt-shorts
This is what I wanted to comment. I added this list and it works like a charm.
I was getting side tracked by these YouTube shorts all the time and it started becoming an issue. They are too addictive and mostly just void.
Perfect I'll try this thank you!
