also if you watch 1 single video about a topic, the next day your feed will be full of that

I usually don't mind that. Sometimes I'm looking in to a new product or hobby and really do want to see a whole bunch of that content. They also provide you a feed which purely contains channels you subscribe to, though I find it much lower quality than the normal feed.

Turning search history off on youtube about a year ago has been one of my best personal "digital life upgrades" in a while.

I did that and now it shows only polarizing videos on the right from both ends.

Oh, mine shows no recommendations at all. Just a blank home screen.

So I basically either watch my curated subscriptions or something I specifically searched for.

We know. Believe me, we know. Because you guys will tell us, every single time YouTube is mentioned.

It is, apparently, very difficult for people to conceive of a video service that does what you want it to, and not what you don't want it to.

Excellent, now the collective "we" all know about it, and it never needs to be mentioned again[0].
