I'm sure this will be a great idea. But I'm going to be honest here, I don't want channels sending me messages. Its another notification on the long list of other notifications I block or disable. I've already unsubscribed from one popular channel because the host used the messaging service to announce a new video. I'll see them when I have time to watch them, don't harass me otherwise.
- infinitesoup 10y agoI found an option to turn off notifications for those messages. If you open the notification settings for a channel that you're subscribed to, you can uncheck "Include community post notifications" and then stay subscribed to just get the video notifications.
- jasonkostempski 10y agoThere's already a perfect solution to getting notifications when new video's are posted on a channel, RSS. It won't bug me unless I ask it to, I don't need a YouTube account for it and I don't have to guess what the (3) next to the channel name actually means (new upload? new like? new algorithm glitch?). I might like to do the same for "Community" posts for some channels but it doesn't look like they do RSS for that (yet?).
