Is there an extension or something that can scan my youtube subscriptions & show me all the new videos to avoid youtube filtering my sub feed?

i'm subscribed to a couple hundred channels and youtube really likes to hide videos from me even tho im subscribed to the channel.
this is incredibly irritating. you shouldnt have to turn on the notification bell when things should just work.
this is something about modern tech i truly hate
i miss being able to check my feed on websites and know for a fact that i saw everything for that day. its stupid that these dumb ass companies think they know better than you. there's a certain kind of feeling you get when you know you've seen the end of something and this curated feed bullshit that companies are doing now ruins that.

They're missing from your sub feed?

I've never missed a video from my subscription feed, so I don't know what's going on with yours.

I never had that issue before, do you use the front page or the subscription page? I just bookmarked my sub page and everything's showing neatly in a grid and pops up whenever something is updated.

it's not just me
youtube does this to everyone
ask a bunch of youtubers and they'll start telling you how youtube doesnt show their videos in their subscribers feeds. its why so many youtubers ask you to turn the bell on now.

Yeah, I hear it all the time, but I don't know how many people are actually using the subscription page rather than just YouTube homepage. I know I've told people in the past and it's blown their mind that there was a page JUST for their subs.

It might be a quantity thing. I am not subscribed to too many people, so maybe I've not hit that critical mass of subs that breaks it.

just because you think you dont have the issue doenst mean it doesnt exist.

is this retroactive for videos before today?
or does it only show you videos from the day you start using it forward?

YouTube feeds have the most recent 15 videos from each channel. I believe if you use a reader like Feedly it stores each entry from every feed that any user subscribed to, so that will get you a longer history.
