Did you know you can actually turn off your watch history, and it will stop recommending videos entirely?
I did it a while back to help stop me from refresh-addiction, and it totally works! You still get a subscription feed but it’s chronological, and it will still suggest relevant videos in the sidebar when you’re watching something.
I want it to recommend some things. So I just curate my history obsessively.
It still recommends videos on the sidebar while watching other stuff. If your watching Tom Scott for example you will get a lot of relevant videos and a mix of his other vids on the side.
that requires making a google account and logging in
Nope. I set up the browser on my computer and phone to delete all cookies from youtube every time I close the window/tab.
Every time I rock up to youtube, it’s like I’m visiting for the first time. Zero recommendations. “Try searching to get started!”
I watch a couple videos, I close the tab. Next time I open youtube? Zero recommendations again. It’s awesome.
