  Can’t find new content just sticking to subscriptions unfortunately

    You can find new content by asking on lemmy about interesting channels.

    True, but you eventually reach a point where your subscriptions fill your feed with more videos than you know what to do with.

    I do branch out occasionally and find new channels to subscribe to, either on youtube or through other sources. Crossovers between channels are also helpful.

    But you can search for subjects of interest, or ask interesting friends for their recommendations.

  You’re not the only one, but you are a tiny minority.

  Technology Connections did a really good video on this topic specifically, and while you can’t extrapolate his numbers to every channel, seeing that less than 5% of all your views come from people using the subscriptions feed is very telling about how most users operate on platforms like YouTube.

  Nobody wants to build their feed anymore. They want an AI/algorithm to do the legwork for them.
