Ohhhh you’re totally right. I tried replicating OPs claim and searched for the video title “Building an Open Source Payment System - Sebastian Javier Marchano, Taler System” and there was no red bar. Searching for “GNU Taler” shows the red bar for that same video. It feels like bad UI, overloading the meaning of the red seek bar, but it seems like in this case, that’s saying it’ll skip you to when they start talking about it, not that you previously watched the video.
I’m sure it’s tedious, but run those tests again, and when you do, before and after watching the video, go to https://www.youtube.com/feed/history and see if it tracked it. I understand you’re logged out, but maybe you’re somehow selected for a test of some sort of logged out experience.
That being said, I ran through your replication steps and could not reproduce it (even down to pulling up the same video). I also doubt that Youtube would create a feature useful for people logged out of their service, since they want to encourage you to log in because they get better data for selling ads.
Are you logged into Youtube/Google? EDIT: I see your comment in another reply saying you’re not logged in. Keeping the rest of my comment below for posterity
Youtube keeps a watch history, and allows you to resume videos where you left off of. This works across devices if you’re logged in. This functionality is enabled by default, and can be turned off in https://myactivity.google.com/

These settings are on an account level and tracked server side. Since the history can be accessed across devices, the browser you use and cookie retention have no effect on the ability for the viewing history to be retained.

That’s a bold move cotton, let’s see how that works out for 'em
Does it not have epoch set to 1970-01-01 00:00:00? Or does the PDP-11 only use a non power of 2 number of bits, and you’ve already set the clock back before? Genuinely curious, never heard of 2029 problem before.
Just remember to take off on 2038-01-19
To reiterate the other comment about code maintainability, I’d suggest removing all commented out code as your next commit. With git, that information isn’t lost and you can always go back to it on commit
d4c981a. The easiest time to create a clean codebase is when you start the project, and the second easiest time is now. Also might be a good idea to use a pre-commit hook to check if commented code is being committed, to stop you from introducing mess in the future.
