I am currently subscribed to 692 channels which sounds like the most adhd thing ever haha. I was curious if i was the only one with such a high number of channels subscribed too or if others are too.

    Yeah same here I have way too many. I couldn’t check on the mobile app but I scrolled through and it went on for like 30 seconds lol. The funny thing is that I only watch like 3 of them somewhat consistently

      Scrolling on the android TV app is so bad when you have a bunch of subscriptions, it literally takes minutes to get to the bottom because the app loads thumbnails for every channel you scroll past.

      Basically once the list has to scroll it’s often easier to just search for the channel defeating the whole purpose of subbing to them.

    258, maybe I should find 2 dead channels to unsubscribe from to get that nice 2^8 number, lol.

    I also have 620 videos in my Watch Later playlist at the moment, I keep stumbling across other videos that seem more immediately interesting than the ones in the playlist. >.>

    79; it’s only so low because I tend to unsubscribe from channels I’m getting bored with, almost as frequently as I subscribe to new ones.

    A lot fewer than I used to be! Subscriptions == notifications, and I’ve been really focused on rooting out unnecessary notifications everywhere I can. At one point, the number was in the several hundreds before I realized just how ridiculous it was to believe I could keep up with that much video content.

        I basically treat my watch later list as a general slush for stuff before it lands in a playlist and as an actual watch later list.

        It’s messy and I’m proud to say it finally dipped below 1000 videos in it recently.

      your welcome Haha. Good to know I’m not the only one. Do you find it that you forgot to unsubscribe from stuff that you or no longer interested in or your hobbies just keep growing. I feel like mine is a little bit of both but I always tell myself that I will go back haha

    32, but only because I ruthlessly culled recently. Also I have 3 accounts to keep it manageable. 2 for whatever I’m currently “on” and one for comedy, which has been a consistent interest.

    112 for me. I think a lot of them are dead and I go through and purge periodically. I really wish there was a way to organize your subscriptions in YouTube. I want a folder with the ones I actually watch and another with all the channels I subscribed to so I wouldn’t forget about them, or when I was briefly really into the history of barcodes (or whatever). I guess I could do two accounts, but I’d never keep up with it.

    too many to bother filtering it. I use freetube to maintain subscriptions and that is apparently starting to creep to 400.
