I noticed my consumption has decased quite a bit. I would visit regularly to watch content from few channels. I would probably still visit every so often to watch the new videos. But the experience has become more deliberate and conscious. I go to YouTube because I want to go and watch something specific. Mindlessly browsing and watching additional content is harder.

This is good progress from Google to get off their platform :)

    Yeah, I had a similar experience

    I wonder why they did this though, before the change YouTube would recommend me videos based on videos I watched so it’s not like they actually needed the watch history to be turned on
