I've repeatedly gotten recommended the same channel I told it I wasn't interested in.

    All I can give you is an anecdote about my own experience. In said experience I've not had any non-starter issues with those two tools. They work for me until Youtube changes its algorithm.

    This is why I mentioned the NFL channel as an example. It's my canary in the coalmine of Youtube. When the NFL channel (among other sports related channels) pops back up on my feed, I know that YouTube has changed something in the algorithm.

    I just click Not Interested and Don't Recommend Channel and away it goes for another year or so until they make another change. Simple as.

    I've curated a recommendation feed that is highly specific to my interests as a result. Not sure why that method wouldn't work for you.
