You can tell YouTube you're not interested in the video or to explicitly not recommend a channel.


Not without logging in.

"But how would that work if you're not" you ask?

Simple: YT is already tracking cookies or session. The block should apply to the session itself.

That said, I'm so done with Google.


Could you have even disliked without logging in?


Like/dislike is ... less useful, as that's both feedback in terms of "this is what I do / don't care for" and is ... semi-trusted crowdsourced quality information on the content itself.

I can see why YouTube wouldn't want to weight the latter much. It could still of course temporarily track like/dislike over the course of a session.
