Tell HN: YouTube requires watch history on for home screen

Until recently, YouTube would present you with a home screen that's compiled mostly from your subscriptions. As of 5 minutes ago, I'm getting a blank screen with the navigation on the left and a message:

  Your watch history is off
  You can change your setting at any time to get the latest videos tailored to you. Learn more
  [Update setting]
For context, I'm paying Premium and I specifically disabled the ad blocker to test. The browser I'm using is Firefox. The subscriptions page still works.
