It's really awful. The worst are those short vertical videos with a robot voice and dramatic music laid over a short clip from another video. It must be what a lobotomy feels like.
Tip for other people: Never ever click on such short (reel) when logged in. If you watch them, YouTube will push more down your throat. If you ignore them, they disappear from your suggestions.
Unless you decline tracking cookies or outright disable cookies, in which case YouTube will push even more crap content down your throat because I guess that's what the average person wants.
