    No, the best decision would be if they allowed us to disable shorts.

    After I selected LEAVE HISTORY OFF, it stopped letting me browse and keeps asking me to ENABLE HISTORY. Anything google product has become hostile.

    Thanks for the nostalgia. I haven’t seen a login YT home feed in years, and I used to be a CC. YT has been a dumpster fire since the lobotomy of 2017.

      It’s even worse now. It used to have a gigantic “thumbnails” like a size of my middle and index finger combined.

      I leave it on, the suggestions are good as far as I can tell. What’s everyone’s beef with it?

      I don’t get the YouTube hate in general. It’s much more interesting than Netflix or TV so I’m happy to pay, although I pay Argentina rates courtesy of subscribing while connected to my VPN and I use Sponsor Block to skip the in-video ad reads. It still counts

      I disabled my Google and YouTube’s history settings since 2019.

      There’s a firefox plugin that redirects you to your subscriptions’ uploads instead of that nonsense that “Home” was. Highly recommend.
