She’s almost 70, spend all day watching q-anon style of videos (but in Spanish) and every day she’s anguished about something new, last week was asking us to start digging a nuclear shelter because Russia was dropped a nuclear bomb over Ukraine. Before that she was begging us to install reinforced doors because the indigenous population were about to invade the cities and kill everyone with poisonous arrows. I have access to her YouTube account and I’m trying to unsubscribe and report the videos, but the reccomended videos keep feeding her more crazy shit.
Another thing that I’d consider doing is to unpause her history a bit, put YouTube to play a few videos about other stuff (topics that she’d watch, based on her tastes, minus the q-anon junk), then pause it again. This might tell youtube “I want to watch this”.
Side note: that’s how mainstream media is making every single one of us flat and single-minded. So you watched X? Onwards you shall see X nonstop.
I fucking hate this.
I got a new phone recently and wanted to watch some videos on recommend cases and screen protectors, and now 70% of my scrolling feed is related to this God damn phone.
I own it already youtube, I don’t need to see any more content on this phone, ffs
I had a similar case. I watch a video about a former jewle thif or bank rober analys the GTA5 Jewel store hist. After that I was getting recommended to watch every single one of his vlog where he was talk about how life in prison was. It went on for about a few weeks but it eventually stopped as I never clicked on them.
