    I do not have that experience at all. Mine is all video games and science. Its based on what you interact with, even if its negative. Engagement is engagement. Even just hovering over a video can result in it being recommended again.

      They literally said it pushes those things when not logged in. So when YouTube doesn’t know your tastes it pushes things like that.

        yeah, no.

        thing is: YT/google/the data kraken knows you regardless of wether or not you’re logged in.

        they track everything from IP, to location (even just approximate based on IP), screen size, browser, OS, and sooo much more.

        being logged in makes it easier to track you within a site, but you get tracked regardless.

        Logging in does affect it, but there’s many more factors that aren’t related to your login status.
