Paste the below code in your browser console (F12 > Console):
/**
* YouTube "Not Interested" Automation Script
*
* This script marks all videos in the YouTube feed as "Not interested".
*
* Usage:
* 1. Open YouTube homepage in your browser
* 2. Open browser DevTools (F12 or Cmd+Option+I)
* 3. Go to the Console tab
* 4. Paste this entire script and press Enter
*
* The script will:
* - Find all video cards in the current feed
* - Click the "More actions" menu (three dots) on each video
* - Select "Not interested" from the dropdown
* - Wait between actions to avoid rate limiting
* - Scroll down to load more videos (optional)
