    That’s unfortunately what the algorithm gives when it doesn’t know very much about you: bottom of the barrel slop. I’m the opposite and stay logged in, but I’m also diligent about removing items from my watchlist if I didn’t like them, or if I see they’re skewing the algorithm.

      Same. I’ve got a decade of watch history at this point, the algorithm is pretty good at showing me videos that are actually relevant to my interests. Every once in a while I’ll click on something outside my norm and the algorithm will shake things up, but if it’s not something I’m interested in then I just hide the first couple videos and it’ll readjust again.
