YouTube is conducting tests to remove notification alerts from channels that viewers fail to interact with to manage notification quantities.
The video platform activates this test procedure exclusively for people who select “All” notifications when subscribing to channels.
YouTube notes that notification entry remains active in the notification inbox, yet viewers who avoid recent channel engagement despite receiving recent push notifications will not receive further push notifications.
The objective of this change is to prevent people from blocking all notifications even after receiving numerous alerts.
