I actually used to have all ad blockers turned off for YouTube because I wanted to support all my favorite creators on there. But then YouTube took away the daily suggestions because I don't let it track my history. So I said "fuck it" and turned all the adblockers back on.

Now I just support the creators I care to via Nebula and their various Patreons.

the funny thing is, if you go to a non logged in session, the suggestion page works fine. It was such an arbitratry grab for the user to consent to them collecting your data. I just bookmarked the subscriptions page and only go there now

I hadn't thought of that. I'll have to try it. It gets boring just looking at my subscriptions.
