    I have lots of subscriptions and disable my search history. I sub to things I want updates for, and search for stuff I don’t. Simple and effective.

      Right so why disable watch history? It’s obviously not a privacy thing because YouTube already know what kind of content you look for because they can see your subscriptions it just seems to be ineffectively making your life more difficult and not really increasing privacy

        1. YouTube’s suggestions are crap, especially since my kids use my account
        2. Most of my YouTube watching is through NewPipe on Android
        3. I avoid most Google products and use an ad blocker, so their tracking doesn’t really affect me

        So I get no value from it, and it is extra tracking, so I disable it.
