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.

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.
