    The only issue I have with YouTube is that while using an Ad blocker it doesn’t track videos I have already seen in my subscriptions.

    So it will tell me that I didn’t watch a video I just watched.

    A small price to pay for an ad free experience but a bit annoying still.

      Don’t worry, my youtube does manage to track my watch history, and yet it will still recommend me a video I’ve just seen anyway!

      If your history isn’t working, it’s probably because you’re blocking s.youtube.com. If you whitelist that, history should work again.

        Interesting. I got to have a peculiar list activated in Ublock that breaks tracking of watched videos.

        Thanks for the feedback.
