  • Deleting search keywords so that I don't get offered videos that match

    From NY@21:1/5 to All on Sat Mar 25 18:26:11 2023
    https://i.postimg.cc/43pZhnsN/Youtube.png shows a section at the top of my default Youtube browser page (ie not the YT app), logged in as myself.

    Is there a way to remove search categories/keywords in the section that I've outlined in red, so the "All" category doesn't include videos that match
    those keywords?

    I'm not sure what term Youtube uses for that search-category toolbar, so
    it's difficult to Google for instructions on how to edit that list.

    []
    Or just specify block words?

    I like cats; I enjoy the odd cat video. But I find if I watch one or
    two, soon 40-50% of my suggestions - or it seems like it - are cat
    videos. I'd like a break - so if it were possible to specify "cat" and "kitten", that'd be good!
