The not interested doesn’t work, the don’t recommend me videos from this channel works perfectly, and if the first video I get recommended of a channel is so repulsive to me I actually care to do something about it, the entire channel is probably bad anyways.
Only engage with things you want to see more of. Downvoting and Not Interested are both forms of engagement.
Engagement metrics allow YouTube to show advertisers that you’re actually looking at the page and not just letting it run in the background
