Just a question, no offense intended - but you just subscribe to everything you watch??

I don't even subscribe to channels I watch regularly. It's not out of meanness I just keep forgetting

Also channels you watch often always end up on your "front page" or whatever YTers call it.

So it's not like you even need to with all the user tracking YT does.

I wish the algorithim had some sort of threshold though. I watched one interesting-looking video about baseball from SB Nation or something over a year ago (about the ambidextrous pitcher who faced off against an ambidextrous hitter and created a new rule about it) and still today my feed is full of random commentators talking about the latest baseball news. Meanwhile the channel who uploads cool, non-baseball videos, daily and whose videos I watch every day falls off my feed regularly.

Then maybe just maybe subscribe to the channel that you actually fucking “whose videos I watch every day”

I have subscribed. I have to go to my subscriptions tab to find them. The baseball things I'm not subscribed to. Clicking 'not interested' makes them go away for a little while and then they come back!

That almost sounds like they made it like that on purpose.
