"textContent": "submitted by Hund to degoogle\n23 points | 9 comments\n\nI have an old Google account that I only use for **one** specific thing today: YouTube recommendations.\n\nTheir algorithm is actually decent. Which is not something I hear myself very often. And while it can be a trap, it does actually recommend me a fair bit of high quality content as long as I stay away from the obvious traps, make sure to block channels I don’t like, and use the feature “not interested” on videos that I don’t like.\n\nHowever. I would like to only use my web feed client and no Google account at all, but I would then miss out on the recommended videos.\n\nIs there some privacy respecting alternative to this that I’m not aware of?",
