It never came to my mind until a recent youtuber (whom I was subscribed too at that time) made a complete ***hole of himself online, causing me to change that subbed button into an unsubbed to that scum. Then it hit me, Its been so long for me to unsubscribe to someone who I completely lost interest. I soon discovered the Manage Subscriptions tab, seeing who I was subscribed too, and out come loads of youtubers whom I've haven't seen some of their videos in years!
Before:



I decided to clean my subscription feed, and doing that went through a bit of memory lane, some were too good to not be unsubbed and some had been inactive longer than a year. So yeah here it is now!
After:



Personally its like finding old toys in the attic and knowing your either a grownup and refuse to play with them (in this case, lost of interest) or they're broken (inactive), and I have no choice but to throw them away (unsub). I did had some good time watching these old youtubers and their videos but... but.. umm... IDK just think of it as the Toy Story 3 ending.

Should you unsub to old youtubers, even though they're buried from other active channels you watch on a daily basis? ...did I made myself look like a d*ck from unsubbing a lot youtubers?

This also gave me a thought, if it wasn't for all those inactive accounts does that mean the subscription numbers means absolutely nothing? Lets say you have 1million subscribers (like most gamers have, not including the big ones, but like gizzy14gazza, Jinx, Bashur etc.) as their numbers are increasing, they still get like 10k-50k views every recent video.. hmmm. also should you unsubscribe like what I did.

I did had some good time watching some these youtubers and their videos but if they moved away from youtube its best for me to forget about them, right.. or did I made myself look like a d*ck showing me unsubbed a bunch of youtubers?
I like your old toy metaphor... I unsub to a lot of channels. Inactive channels, channels that just got annoying, or channels that suddenly post millions of views and crowd my sub list are some of the reasons I unsub. I am still subscribed to channels like Dave Firth and Cyriak because they post few and far between videos, but I'm never disappointed and they are two of my favorite channels. It makes my day when I see a new upload by them.

i recently had to unsub due to the fact that the youtuber i was subbed to was #1 uploading fake content and calling them his real life blogs #2 lieing to his fans and #3 got 2 mill subs because of his lies and deceit so after he ignored my repeated attempts to call him out on his lies i left him in favor of thoes who do upload good content worth watching

i mean i use to think about cleaning up my feed..but i realized alot of people don't really upload anymore so i just didn't bother..which is a good thing because your old toy in the attic metaphor has come true on more then a few occasions haha

I actually never really unsubscribe, but I just looked at my subscription list, and there's so many people who's channel I really don't even watch anymore. I should probably go through and clean it out a bit!
