Same issue for me. It's dumb too because I used to like trolling the front page for new interesting things daily but now it literally just gives me the same videos I've already watched with a few new ones sprinkled in to what I just watched a minute ago.Youtube's algorithm has the memory of a goldfish. All of its suggestions are clearly based on the last like 4 videos I watched. If I want to change my entire front page all I have to do is watch a couple videos on a topic and then it's 75% that. It doesn't seem all that smart. It only knows me about as well as "Oh you watched a godzilla video this morning? Here's 25 more." Which is...fine, I guess?

Pretty good, at this point I can pretty safely click on a new person I have not heard of and they are up front with more progressive views. Like Bioninc Pig was a recent one that I got recommended and his movie reviews calls out sexism and racism. I very readily use the do not recommend features.

and use the do not recommend features. You can also try searching and cleaning up your watch history of why you were recommended it. I watched like 2 Iceberg videos a while back when the Mario one happened and the rest were bad but I kept getting new recommendations till I deleted them.
Yeah, the recency bias with their Algorithm is pretty terrible. I dip into my subscriptions regularly and go....why the hell aren't you recommending me any of these (and related) videos Youtube? I watch those channels on the regular, but then as soon as I stray into another topic, my feed is flooded with crap.Youtube's algorithm has the memory of a goldfish.

I've been trying for years, my history is pretty much blank and it still insists on marvel, football and tanks.
This is a sign you haven't bought it enough!Google don't know shit. It recomends me to buy Yakuza Collection every day even though i bought it more than a year ago.
i've had my history disabled for years, but i noticed they started providing fairly relevant recommendations a few months back. their algorithm probably takes a bunch of other things into account like channel subscriptions, likes, and account interaction off the site.I've disabled my history in youtube so it doesn't know me at all.
At least, that's what it claims publicly, who knows what things look like behind the scene.
