I also never get these. It might be because you interact with them.

I browse logged out. Interact when them I do not. The weight loss and solar scams are forced advertisements before every video.

The logged out experience is closer to the interests of the average person. So if you're not pruning (and savings) your interests, that's hardly surprising.

The average person wants to be served AI slop and scams?

What the average person says they want and what they will actually chose behaviorally will often not line up.

This is like the guy who goes to the doctor complaining of eye pain whenever he drinks tea. "Have you tried taking the teaspoon out?"

YT pushing videos can be annoying, but at the same time there is an element of human free will here. You can chose not to watch them.

Just block them. I haven't seen a short in months.
