by opening videos you don’t like and give them a thumbs down
You don’t need to do this. There literally is a feature for exactly this: Click on the three dots and on “Don’t recommend”. If you do this, content like that won’t be recommended to you anymore.
I can promise you that the ‘dont recommend’ rarely works, and if used on Youtube Music it will actually show it to you as if you liked the video, even if you disliked it on regular Youtube

But then the content won’t receive my thumbdown :(
