      Have you looked at a fresh YouTube frontpage without being logged in and no cookies and/or history? Sure privacy is nice and important but I don’t know if it’s worth it.

        I’m always saddened that the default suggestions are borderline right-esoteric videos at least when my IP is a German one. Although it’s similar for Polish IPs

        I mean, if youtube would just provide me with the latest videos of my subs and from there the generic related video recommendations it would be better than it currently is.

        Youtube used to be amazing to discover music in the same genres. Now it just suggests, what i already now, rarely every giving me the chance to get something new.

          The subbox is for your subscriptions and the frontpage is what the algorithm suggests to you and for me it’s mostly stuff that’s relevant to me. Or at least stuff where I can see why an algorithm would think it’d be relevant to me.
