has anybody else gotten the YouTube update that removes the recommendation feed until you re-enable watch history?

i know the goal is to pressure more people to enabling watch history, but for me personally it is amazing. visiting youtube.com or the youtube mobile app with watch history disabled is entirely distraction free and i love it.

this sort of thing is why i’m using freetube/skytube

mostly also because only your subscriptions affect the recommendations on those apps instead of all your activity on the site

didn’t (or shouldn’t) YouTube had a word against third party clients?

(unless if these are a separate service)
