Silver lining: Is there a chance the ads will be relevant? Enterprise targeted advertising sophistication level is currently at "He just bought shoes; wow he must like shoes" or "He's 34-45M; make the reels only boobs.

The YouTube algorithm seems to be this bad.

I listened to a song a few weeks ago... now that song is in almost every page on YouTube for me. Homepage, sidebar, search results. It's just everywhere.

I've already listened to it. I don't want to listen to it again every single day for the rest of time.

Even worse, listening in YouTube Music pollutes my regular YouTube feed. Why have two apps when they're the same thing?

This is why I unsubscribed from YouTube Music after having been a Google Play Music user for years. YTM polluting YT just ruined both for me.

Now I use a different music streaming platform and have history turned off on YouTube.

Apologies. That's probably because of people like me. I listen to the same 5-6 songs and click through on the home page.
