    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

      Yeah, I’m all for privacy, but I actually get interesting things recommended by YouTube. If I turn this off won’t I just get random YouTube videos? No thanks. I also do use my watch history for “I watched it the other day, what was that video called again?”
