Just use RSS to follow specific channels.
Freetube does this really well

we're making updates to better match how people discover trending content today by shifting away from one all-encompassing Trending list towards category-specific charts that we’ll continue to invest in over time.
Good. Can my Watch Later list please be the most important item I see when I go there?

I spend hours on YouTube every single day and I have no clue what a "trending page" is.
I'm not sure how you can be so invested in YouTube and not at least be aware of trending. Have I ever looked at it? Not intentionally. Am I aware of it? Yeah.

Get rid of Shorts.
Use browser plug-ins and revanced.

Great, trending videos are generally completely trash
Occasionally a video I like will get to trending and I'll question my taste in media.

When you're logged out the main page is blank. It's glorious. Thanks EU!

True. I know this person and they speak for every single person that uses YouTube.

Knowing Youtube they will start drizzling them into your search results instead or something equally terrible.

- Always check the Subscriptions page first
- Check Watch Later list, after that
- scroll the Home page, after that
Have never seen a link to a "Trending" page or a "Trending Now" list in any of those spots.

I use https://unhook.app/ and there's no trending page

I have YouTube bookmarked to go directly to subscriptions and I have revanced configured to open directly to subscriptions. I've still seen trending as a tab in the sidebar on the website, and accidentally tapped on it back before vanced existed.
All of that said, I did just check and it's way more difficult to find now. It's near the bottom of the sidebar in browser, and iirc it used to have its own frustratingly dedicated tab in the mobile app, which it no longer does.

unhook is amazing, it blocked unrelated ragebait and tripophobic content randomly popping up on my searches

Hell yeah! It's way too hot even for those.

How's that gonna break NewPipe and the likes? Surely they don't rely solely on the Trending page to get videos and such. I can see unpopular videos as well.
Sure, that could break their Trending pages. But they can then adapt by adopting the different Trending categories, innit? Make it a drop-down on the Trending page to select a category and avoid cluttering other parts of the interface with all the options

it won't, but it's clearly a deterrent. a pathetic one at that.

Shorts (as a format) aren’t the problem, it’s what you watch. If you train the algorithm to serve you garbage, then of course it’s gonna serve you garbage ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Dude, I suck at comments but even I put the effort in to get the shrugging guy right. Missing arm fucking sucks. I've got a shitty clue for you. It's a bunch of unnatural slashes

The trending page stopped being worth looking at once it shifted away from actual trending content. That content was replaced with ad friendly corporate videos like Kimmel and family vloggers you've never heard of.

Meanwhile report every video that has a click-baity title or thumbnail
