YouTube abandoned the subscription grid view. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

[Feature Request] Limit the number of videos shown #107

Closed g-rocket closed 10 years ago

g-rocket commented 10 years ago

The page takes a very long time to load for me (I timed 50.8 seconds on my phone, and 27.7 on my computer), and I think part of the problem it that it's trying to load a lot of videos (I counted 536 on my phone, and 341 on my computer). This is especially frustrating when I have to immediately reload the page because, when videos are added, it shows old videos at the top (see #94), making it a very long time until I can use the page. I am not going to look at all 536 (or 341) of those videos, so it would be nice to be able to set to, for instance, only show the 50 most recent videos, and get the page to load in a reasonable time.

(the reason that the computer had dramatically less videos is because I have filters set up on it, and none on the phone because it's almost impossible to add filters on mobile devices)

(the phone appears to be loading 7 videos per second, and the computer 12 videos per second)

There are two approaches that I want to take to this. One is certainly a by-number restriction that you can configure. The other would be ideas like #93 to cut down the number of videos displayed that you don't want to watch yet, anyhow.

Alright, have decided to limit number of videos first, will look into stuff like age later with better filters. I don't think the age thing would do much right now.
