To how many YouTube channels do you subscribe? What would you consider to be too frequent for each to post new content?

Asked by Buttonstc (27605points) May 22nd, 2016 from iPhone

Would you consider anything significantly more than 2X per week on a regular basis to be excessive/annoying.

What, for you, would be an ideal number? How much regular frequency do you deem to be too much? At what frequency would you unsubscribe from that channel?

Personally speaking, I would find that significantly more often than twice per week would annoy me.

But I’d be very interested in other peoples opinions.

So, how much is too much?

I don’t care how many videos a channel upload a day, as long as the content is good. It is annoying when a channel upload nothing but crap everyday.

That said, ideally I would like a channel to upload at least once a month. But I understand making a good video is hard and I can wait if I’m sure the video is going to be good. But the channel has to keep on posting. If they stop posting for too long, I’ll unsubscribe.

Unfortunately, people seem to like channels that upload at the same speed as you said, even though the content is horrible This may be the reason why this crappy channel is so popular (really, at least 2 videos a day!). I used to like it but I unsubscribed when there was no improvement to the quality and the uploader had to reply on shocker for views.

None. I think about it from time to time, but have never actually subscribed to a channel.

I am subscribed to 27 channels. Some of them upload every day. Some of them upload two or three times a week. Some of them upload once a week. Some of them upload every other week. None of it bothers me because I don’t feel pressured to watch every single video. I watch a little more than half of the videos posted by one of the every day channels I’m subscribed to and less than half of the videos posted by the other one. But that’s because I’m just not as interested in some of their features (both have different types of content each day). And even if there’s a backlog of stuff I’m interested in, that just means I get to binge every once in a while!

I, actually, only “subscribe” to one, other than my own. The other is “Kid History.” They don’t upload enough, IMO! I never get tired of them.

None, I have my favorites but don’t subscribe to any.
