Google does a fair amount of data gathering even if you don't log in. I think it does it through cookies, fingerprinting or browser inspection
If I use a session long enough it will start to change to my actual taste
Could you send a screenshot of what you see? I'm curious to see if it's different
If your tastes are anything except the average population's, you will have little to no interest in the homepage suggestions.
There must be separate cookies for when you're logged out or something, because as someone who is always logged in, logging out completely changes the suggestions.
