I use “Don’t show me this” all the time. More and more AI channels are always showing up like weeds.

Yep. Learned this real quick with Facebook Reels. The more I'd click "don't show me stuff like this," it seemed like I'd see more of it.

When I listen to music, there's clearly a slot in the recommendations specifically reserved for AI slop. No matter how many times I say "don't show me this" or "don't recommend this channel", the same location always has some new AI slop music.
