Netflix served me a true crime doc right after I searched baby proofing

My wife laughed at me but I'm pretty sure the algorithm thinks I'm some kind of criminal planner now, it even suggested a map of abandoned mines next. Is there a way to reset your whole watch history without losing every show, or am I stuck in this spiral?

Flip your phone upside down next time you search. Seriously, the algorithm tracks your IP, device ID, and search timing. If you search baby proofing at 3 AM after binging a murder doc, it thinks you're a sleep-deprived criminal. Change your routine, search during the day, and clear your cookies before you watch anything. That should confuse it enough to pivot your suggestions to something boring like gardening.
