YouTube actually doesn't suggest me content at all, anymore. It's telling me watch history is disabled and I have to turn it back on in order to get recommendations. I used to fix this problem with the uBlock Origin's Purge Cache button, but now that's gone too and the new method to do it doesn't seem to work.

So now whenever I go to YT I type in names of a couple creators I follow to see if they've uploaded, and leave the platform afterwards.

Ok, you know what, maybe those YouTube layoffs were actually warranted...

If YT wants to do aesthetic stuff, why not bring back custom channel backgrounds? Or better yet, add more site-wide themes like dark mode.
