Hey guys! We ran a poll a couple of months ago which showed that a lot of you weren’t seeing our videos in your feed, and we may have an answer from YouTube as to why that is. After speaking with support, they seem very focused on the notification bell - probably more than they should be, since that feature doesn’t really work as expected.
That said, it would appear that they do use it as a metric to determine which of your subscribed channels you’re most interested in watching. So, if you’re not seeing us as often as you used to/want to, try turning notifications on (despite how useless the feature actually is in practice).
Edit: to be clear, I mean the channel specific notification bell, rather than the YouTube app itself on your device.
