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.

      I’ll never be interested in shorts type videos and would like the general view 30 day removal of shorts to also apply to the subscription view. It seems like bad design to only have the removal apply to the general view.

      About the shorts part, IIRC at first it didn’t separate them, so they were intermingled. That was a pretty big pain in the ass.

      Now that they just have their own section, I fully agree.
