I have a curated home page of videos, yet I could search for "WW2 documentary" and YouTube will intersperse after the 5th result some trending video about the Kardashians.

Search has become one of the most dysfunctional features in Google products. I am extremely annoyed that I am paying for YouTube Premium, I might just pull the plug and install a network-wide ad blocker system so I can vote with my wallet.

God, I hate modern Google.

Network blocking won't help much with the drivel. I suggest using Vanced for your phones/computers and SmartTube for your TV. Auto-skipping sponsored segments, intros, and filler is a real game-changer.
