I have history turned on and it generally recommends stuff I'm interested in. My only complaint is that it doesn't update often enough and likes to recommend videos I've seen already.
Same, I get the feeling very few people actively interact with the "not interested"/"don't recommend" stuff, so they end up getting all kinds of weird recommendations. Or they also use Youtube Music. For some reason Youtube seriously struggles to understand that most people don't consume video the same way they consume music, and conflates the two constantly.
