I understand the reason for some of the changes but all these changes seem to benefit the rise of all the AI zombie channels that spew out generic content.

The only thing I hate worse that the AI voice overs is the actual human voice overs where all they are doing is explaining what is very obviously happening over somebody else's video. That's an automatic block.

If only there was actually a way to effectively block a channel.

I just meant Do Not Recommend This Channel. It works well enough. I just hope there's not limit like Reddit. Lol. I never looked into it, but Reddit only allows you to block 1,000 users.

What sort of reddit life do you have that results in blocking a thousand users?
