    There’s some YouTube channel that adds “Official trailer” to their thumbnails and they mean “their official fan made trailer” and it’s annoying and misleading. YouTube has a “don’t suggest” option on channels but they need a block.

    Fan made trailers need like a [Parody] tag or something, imo

      There is an option to block a channel. Click into the channel > About > Report User > Hide user from my channel.

      I think it’s scummy of YT to bury it in this way, but it’s there.

      They do have a block/hide option but it’s pretty obscure and involves going to the channel’s page. I’m not sure about mobile, but on desktop it shows up when you click to Report the channel, though reporting isn’t required.
