Disable YT history. Make YT Subscriptions page your home page. Now all you see are the most recent videos from your subscribed channels. You can keep up with them without being distracted by garbage suggestions. It's a much better experience.

YouTube Unhook is great for this. Blocks suggested video sidebar, too - and can be customized.
