The ‘Subscribed’ section has gone pretty much untouched for almost 20 years. There is a highlights thing now but from there down it’s ONLY what you want.
They stopped fully populating your subscriptions back in… 2022ish? I want to say. To even see them all you have to use 3rd party software, or they’ll narrow the presented channels down based on a shitty calculation
I have heard that many times but have not observed it first hand, when a user posts after years of absence it shows up in my list. And when I remember a user that I have not seen in years and I check them directly there aren’t any videos that I have missed. Maybe they are doing something on a per-user basis to drive engagement.
What kind of channels do you sub to? Are they prone to saying things that are not censor-friendly, because that’s one of the big things that will cause it to drop them from your notifications.
The other is when people subscribe to a channel but haven’t watched recent releases while logged into your account. Youtube sees that as “well you’re subscribed to them, but like do you REALLY watch them?”
Almost exclusively maker/hacker/science guys with some animators/artists mixed in. Checking the users with the lowest subscriber counts they have either not posted in years or I have watched their most recent uploads :/
Okay. Those are guys who I assume would know what kind of stuff not to say to avoid getting their visibility messed with. I guess this is a thing that will tend to happen more to political and history commentators. But if you watch their videos while logged out for any reason, same deal across the board.
Offhandedly, Is there anyone that you would recommend to me?
Some of these guys rarely upload anymore but the stuff they have uploaded is brilliant. I tried to pick guys who are least likely to show up on the main-stream of recommendations.
