>Youtube...Don't ignore it, hit the "..." and select the "get tae fuk" option.

Is there a way to downvote something on the Youtube "home" page? Before you would click on it to play it? There is a vertical ellipsis, but the only options under that are "Add to Queue" and "Share".

I'd guess it's because you're not logged in. There are three options if you're logged in:

- Not interested

- Don't recommend channel

- Report

Thanks for the informative answer.

if you are on firefox you can use multi-account-containers to limit the reach of google.

I have a container for youtube which is logged in with a specific account. Its different from any work account that I have.

This improves the recommendations 100x. As it means that any videos you view for work, research or away from your main interests don't pollute your recommendations.
