Google without logging in with ublock is best. No privacy implication, no ads, no ai response.

Not a mod btw.

This can be a soft limit where Youtube limits the connection rate so that artificially inflating view count becomes more costly. There are inexpensive ‘services’ especially in India or Pakistan where you can buy human (like a whole internet cafe) view times to your scam video to make it float in suggestions and to promote a channel.

I don’t work for youtube so it is just a guess.
