> think YouTube is the shining example of controllable recommendation systems.

Youtube is the worst. I have all the time to open videos (and think about it!) in private tab so that my recommendations don't get messed up. And then of course on phone you don't have that luxury so you have to go clean history manually. And now they added two interstitials before you can actually view video in private.

Shining example indeed

I've noticed that, lately, YT recommends mostly based on my last week/days of video history with them. Which is ok-ish, but certainly some content that I haven't been following lately gets relegated to oblivion.
