Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You can fix your YouTube algorithm by going into your watching history and deleting the videos you don’t want used for recommendations!
Also, tap the three dots on videos you don't want to watch and select don't recommend channel or not interested.
You'd be surprised how good youtube is at finding similar crap.
There's this one streamer/YouTuber I used to watch a lot, but after some controversy I didn't feel comfortable watching him anymore. For months now I've been telling YouTube to stop recommending his channel and it still pops up.
Ha! That doesn't work for a decade now
don't recommend channel works fine for me. Not interested does nothing.
... Fucking really? OMG, that's good to know!
I manually clear my history once in a while. I used to have it turned off to force the algorithim to only work with my Liked videos but can't do that anymore. It will pretend that they can't recommend anything unless the history is turned on.
Yeah, like a month ago my YT recommendations were dry, plus and I wanted to delete all my search history and turn it off, but I couldn't do that without clearing my watch history too. So I did that and the algorithm was fixed!
The only problem was that it recommended videos I already watched.
Also, use a private window or app for viewing videos outside of the "norm". I do this for pretty much everything I click through on Lemmy and some channels I just don't want to ruin my feed.
You just changed my life!
I used to do that on Netflix as well
