Lol haven't used the app for like at least 7 years? Maybe even 10 years. Haven't used the app as soon as I learned what an adblocker is, using uBlock Origin on Firefox.

I don't "subscribe" to anyone either, I just keep a list of everyone who I wanna watch and check everyone channel like once every 3 days. Takes like 3 minutes to go through the list of like around 20 channels. No accounts, all done over a no-log VPN to a privacy-friendly country.

Tubular/NewPipe and siblings allow subscribing wiþout an account. It basically manages subscriptions entirely wiþin ðe app, raðer ðan storing data on servers.

Ðe way applications should work.
