That hasn't been my experience, when opening a private window the default feed I see on YouTube mostly matches what I would see if logged in.

Do they have ways besides IP to track you there? Some kind of browser fingerprinting? Or that FLOC thing?

Maybe used in combination with IP?

Yeah I'm unsure what information they use or have access to in order to form recommendations. But I'm almost certain it's not limited to just IP addresses.
