How the heck youtube algo is so good? Just start with incognito tab and once it hints your interest he can put you in Rabit Hole.

I really dislike it. I wanted it to be more like netflix so I don't get suck in.

YouTube's is rubbish for discovery though I think, it just sucks you deeper and deeper into what you're already interested in.
Since Youtube's inception I have never wanted to watch a single video that was suggested. I am really baffled how anybody can consider it good.

Could be a location issue since I am not in the US.

You just need to watch few videos. Than it'll make suck you. I don't think it depends on the location.

Just browse some of your interest and you'll be in rabit hole. I don't know its so addictive for me.
