This sounds genuinely awful to me. Every time I open an incognito tab to search something or watch a video without affecting my watch history, the default recommended videos are the absolutely worst most insane slop I've ever seen. I can't imagine using youtube without history recommendations since my devices would all have different recommendations and they would completely reset if I ever clear cookies.

If you turn history off, there should be no recommendations whatsoever. The page is empty except for video search.

The home page turns off, but recommended videos still show up in the sidebar as usual.

Dunno if it's any good. Didn't sleep yet.
