I am very selective over what channels i actually follow, which is actually not how Youtube wants users to use the site. The channels that i know i will want to consume all or almost all of their videos i will subscribe to and follow. Channels that i really like but i watch/binge occasionally i purposefully do not follow but i try to remind myself to look them up. Youtube however wants people to follow any content maker that they like, but then that makes my feed unmanageable and at that point i might as well be looking at the default YT homepage.
Even channels that i really love i don’t subscribe to because they’re an occasional browse for me, stuff like Townsend & Son, Drawfee, Taofledermaus, some gaming channels, etc.
