For an older Internet user, it feels baffling that returning a website to a state where it shows you what you search for, and what you subscribe to, is considered an extreme nuclear option.

Even PageRank (the secret sauce in the original Google search) is arguably a recommendation engine. You can just use PCA of some feature then use cosine similarity, this has been known forever.
