Probably been discussed before but can't be bothered searching.

For those using a VPN have you set up your own, how hard is it 2 set up??? Those using software, what would you recommend?

What do you want to achieve with your VPN?

Ok probably best you look at one of the services that you see, I've not tried them but I'm sure they will work and will be relatively simple to setup

Youtube used to show me recommended videos based on my past watch history (i.e. if I watched a video about AFL for instance, the youtube home page would offer a range of other videos on that topic), but it no longer does this. All I get now is recommended videos based on various topics like "Trending", "TV Shows", "Music", etc which generally don't interest me that much.

I've gone into settings but cant figure out how to get recommended videos based on what I've watched previously. Any tips or tricks?

Hey Plasnart,

Are you currently logged in to the account linked to your YouTube? Mine is hooked to my Gmail email account and that gives me recommendations based on previously viewed videos.
Check in the top right of YouTube if your currently logged in.

Thanks BigJ. I eventually worked it out. In account settings I had somehow unchecked Watch History. Once I turned it back on all the recommendations based on my history came back. Cheers.
