I don’t have a feed if I don’t turn on recommendations.
I've had history turned off for years, like easily a decade. I only get dumb things I don't care about recommended to me, like Madonna videos, as they're taking random stabs in the dark at engaging me. What I do watch on YouTube is drag queens and videos of sovereign citizens being teased, but they never get suggested.
I'm almost completely off YouTube already and now I find videos annoying and a waste of time.
I watch videos from udemy to learn something though.
