I highly recommend to everyone just turning off your watch history on YouTube. You will not be given recommendations and you have to make a search for something in order to get anything at all to watch. Only works on desktop/laptop though. I successfully kept my parents away from all these destructive algorithms (I managed to keep them totally off Facebook, et al), but YouTube got them because you cannot turn off recommendations when using YouTube apps on phones/tablets/TVs - and it single-handedly turned them into right wing sycophants over about a four year period (to be fair, they were already the religious type).
