  This is how I fixed mine when it happened to me. I didn’t realize the AC was using the same air filter as my furnace, so it had gotten really dirty and blocked airflow. A cheap new air filter replacement fixed all the issues.

  More like “If we further break what’s half-broken and going haywire, maybe it’ll stop.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do people just not use the YouTube subscription feed?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I subscribe to a lot of channels, and they usually put out significantly more videos that I don’t want to watch than videos that I do. I’ll usually subscribe to a channel for a specific video in case they make more of that specific kind of video, but I won’t care about their other stuff.

  For example, I subscribe to the Game Grumps channel, but I only want to watch them play games that I’ve also played, or that I at least know enough about to follow along with the gameplay without focusing all of my attention on it. If they’re playing a game I’ve never heard of - which they often do - then I don’t care to watch it.

  The algorithm does a better job of showing me the videos I actually want to see than the subscription feed does because it takes into account which specific videos I’ve seen and skipped for each of my subscriptions.
