Not the person you asked, but I do that sometimes. For instance, when I want to watch a specific video but I don’t want having watched it to affect other video recommendations.
I don’t know if this actually does what I hope it does, but if I happen to watch a video that I don’t want recommendations on in the future, I manually delete the video from my watch history.
I don’t know if that really helps, but at least as a placebo it feels good to do.
In what scenario are you watching it without being logged in?
Go to a family member’s house and try to show them something on YT.
Cringe in horror at the experience.
I am aware of how bad logged out YouTube is, that’s why don’t do it lol.

Incognito window =)
That’s how it’s done, yep.

I stopped watching YouTube logged in after getting FreeTube on my laptop.
