Subscriptions are good, but YouTube recommendations introduce new channels that you didn’t know about before, so recommendations are still needed for me.
I can respect that. I’ll admit my finding new creators has slowed considerably since I stopped using Youtube directly. Now I just use word of mouth from podcasts and YT creators I already follow. For me, as of right now, that’s fine.
But if I had just joined the platform, I’ll admit there’s just no way I’d discover as much, and would probably just use the platform directly.
I feel the same way. I switched to NewPipe recently, while degoogling my phone for privacy reasons, but I’m still using YouTube when I’m at my desktop. The recommendations are just better at finding new content for me.
