I almost never watch "shorts" but my suggestions for it seem to have an...uhhh...adult theme. I don't watch any such thing with YouTube. Does everyone see garbage like this?

There's plenty of extensions to block shorts entirely. I'm on YouTube for a good reason. If I was interested in under 10min videos I'd be elsewhere.

I just deactivated recommendations completely. If I want to watch something new, I'll just use certain search terms.

You can also just block element with uBlock to get rid of it, no need for an additional extension.
