What surprised me the most was the statistic that only 3% of author’s views come from the subscriptions feed. This is wild to me because subscriptions are pretty much the only way I have ever used YouTube.

Considering that my biggest issue with YouTube is the fact that subscribing to a channel means fucking nothing now, it doesn’t surprise me at all.

Being subscribed to a channel used to actually inform you when that channel uploaded something new, every time without fail. Now, that system is a separate thing (the bell) and it doesn’t even fucking work 100% of the time. I subscribe to and have notifications enabled for about 13 channels that upload every single day; I only get notified like once a month about a random video whenever YouTube decides it wants to actually do the thing I have told it to do.

Like, I am subscribed to Technology Connections and have notifications enabled but this post is how I have come to know this video was uploaded.

I heard that he wrote that song after visiting an underground mall in Japan. How gnarly was that mall, that it made Jamaroquai write a song about technology being fucked up?

Is that cloudflare one the one that just verifies you’re human automatically? Like it pops up with a check box you sometimes don’t even have to manually click? How does that one even work? 🤔
