I stay logged out of YT, and clear my cookies every so often when I start getting too many of the same kinds of recommendations. They do match based on IP, since that's all they really have from me. When I delete cookies, though, things start over, basically. Then I get recommendations based on what I've searched for in YT and what I've watched since I last deleted them. It's nice, really. For a little while, YT doesn't know enough about me not to show me both sides of an issue I'm searching for. It's really touchy, though. Two or three videos covering one particular side of an issue in a row and the other recommendations disappear.
Of course, I can't subscribe, like, ring the damn bell, or whatever it is they want me to do in every video. I do use patreon for those content creators I really like.
