    ever since they stopped allowing people whose history was turned off to get recommendations on the front page.

    How do you expect to get recommendations with no watch history?

      They still build recommendations even if you’re not logged in, you can see them in the sidebar after you load a video. Imo they only removed them from the homepage to try convincing people to log in or create account, it’s all about increasing user numbers, ad engagement, and data collection these days.
