I keep getting 'rescue' animal videos which involve people purposely putting puppies and kittens in destressing situations so they can 'save them' its sick and no matter how often i block and report those videos they re-appear next month. I also get alot of 'police shooting people' videos which i also try to block

I think it's just a matter of fine tuning your preferences. I've never an irrelevant video recommended to me within the last few years. All the recommendations have been great. Retro hardware reviews, video game gameplay guides, science videos, and other informational/engineering stuff.
