Do people just not use the YouTube subscription feed?
Do people just not use the YouTube subscription feed?
I consistently hear people on YouTube complain that the subscribe button doesn't do anything for viewers, now that channel notifications are controlled by the bell. But it does do something: it puts the videos from that channel in your subscription feed, which is readily accessible on all versions of YouTube. So why do people act like it doesn't exist? I think it's super convenient, especially if you're subscribed to a ton of channels and don't want your notifications feed flooded with new videos.
You're viewing a single thread.
Personally I remember when the main page used to be the user's subscription feed. After they changed it, I just updated my bookmark and continued to land on the subscription feed. At some point everyone else seems to have forgotten that that happened and started pushing the bell.
One thing I'll say though: They started making shorts take up a whole row and I'm not happy about it. I don't really watch shorts unless they're Hank Green's, and then it depends on my mood. I'm on YouTube for YouTube videos, not TikTok videos
If you have ublock origin there's a script you can put in that automatically hides YouTube shorts from your subscription page.
Them putting shorts in their own row made it much easier. You don't even need to find a script, just right click on the shorts and block element.
Works great, until they change the page again.
Same here. My bookmark goes to the subs page.
