[whatch]

Recently I've disabled search and watch history, and home page content became very similar to the Trending tab in my country (i.e. pure garbage). Also I've lost ability to resume playback from last known position across devices, so had to turn watch history on back. And it made my home page great again.

doesn't that make sense though ?

If there is no watch history, not possible for google to make recommendations ? or am I missing something ?

It does.

My point was that for me disabling history disabled _good_ recommendations based on my activity (and some other features), which is different from anecdotes in parent and sibling comments.
