Youtube Subscriptions Rant!

Noticing Philip DeFranco missing from my feed... went to his channel, checked the ringing bell, and was met with:


While I understand YouTube's mindset of wanting big channels not to hog the feed, allowing therefore smaller channels to have a chance (and, the #BAUniC project, for example, is a small fish in an overpopulated media existence, so, this is talking from the party directly affected.), they should understand that I freaking wanted to see what he had to say, all of it, which I had gone through the trouble to get notifications from him in the first place, since already subscriptions were not appearing in the subscriptions feed.

Well, of course I changed it to 'All', but not all channels in my subscriptions list have it set to this new format, very few of them in fact, and I don't know when they will have it changed, and I should not go through hundreds of channels to see if something is changed.

So, I understand you and your need to have algorithms feed the viewers instead of humans, and the rationalization of how that could be good for everybody. And I Don't agree with it!

You should understand the .|..  ..|. symbol I am giving you in response to your attempts too, ok?

Also, I know Fakebuk is much worse, but it is pointless to rant about it. They are too far gone. In my opinion, the world would be a better place if Fakebuk died.
