I thought I "solved" this problem - I have a bookmark folder ("YouTube init") which i open in a private window after accepting their history tracking. It used to work. The bookmarks contains some programming like Fireship, some bass playing channels etc.
However. Now my YT hmepage includes shorts with females, some of them with big boobs. I never clicked on any of these. But they figured that since I'm a programmer and play bass, I must be into big boobs because well, a stereotype male, so the soulless machine is pushing all this empty BS that millions of people clicked on before. But not me. An I don't have the option to say "don't show this stuff to me".
(These are not erotic per se, but let's say a female guitar player without a bra in the tumbnail, or a bass player with her boobs in the foreground... I understand why people do these, but I really don't want these on my YT hp. it's lowest quality clickbait stuff.)
