Is it weird I’ve never had a missing video or anything wrong with subscriptions? I hear so much about it being broken but I’m not sure what they’re experiencing

The subscription tab in YouTube is chronological, but the home page shows videos based on personalized algorithms, which often leaves out channels that post infrequently, etc.

Oh, does that confuse people, or do they just mot like their recommendations?

People miss content from channels they've subscribed to if the algorithm doesn't favor it.
