It won’t even show you anything unless you have some viewing history. It’s just straight up broken for people who have had accounts for many years.
minus-squarexx3rawr@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·21 hours agoLol that’s close to what I do. It used to show you videos based on your likes and subs even with eatch history off but now they will refuse. So I just temporarily turned on history, watch some seeds, then turn it off again, and voila, it suggests based on likes and subs just like before.
