      That’s funny 'cos you can literally just choose not to view content from anyone you hate. You have all of the tools available to you to block anything and everyone you don’t want to see, but you’d rather complain in a comment for other people to see?

          Freetube you can filter out channels by title. It’s a bit manual, but you can do it.

          i don’t do smartphones, but i have this site bookmarked for other things and found these instructions there for the yt app: android and iphone/ios

          for computers, there are third-party addons to add functionality to youtube’s web site. some provide point-and-click blocking functionality.

          third-party apps, as long as they’re still ‘allowed’, may also have the extra functionality you’re looking for.

      Has she done problematic shit or something? I thought it was just the obnoxious blonde lady who was a dictionary corner bigot.

        Oh no! what has she done that’s bigoted? (I did a quick search and couldn’t find anything).

        I enjoy her word nerdery so I’d be disappointed to find out she’s iffy.

          The obnoxious dictionary corner blonde is Rachel Riley, who very much is problematic.

          As far as I can tell,Susie D is A OK, but that commenter may know stuff we don’t or idk, just doesn’t like her or something.
