Just to add to this, I set bookmarks on my phone and pc to go to youtube/feed/subscriptions instead of the YT home page. While they still unsubscribe me periodically from wrongthink channels, at least starting from my feed shows me the most recent videos from channels I'm subbed to.

Also, I do basically the same thing on Rumble and click there first before going to YT. A lot of times I get my fill of "time wasting" on Rumble before even going to YT. Win-win.
