Part of a strange, larger trend where things get worse as technology advances.
autocorrect, search engine results, google now -> assistant, voice recognition.
All of those seemed to be much better a few years back.
Swipe on my gboard has definitely gone worse lately. Same for my YT recommendations. I never ever watch shorts, and 90% of my recommendations are 13sec clips.
You need to very consistently mark every short video as Not Interested and then avoid watching them like the plague. It worked for me but took about a week of doing it.
