I have never even liked, commented, or subscribed when a youtuber told me to. If I like their content, I'll decide to subscribe on my own. I've never thought "Oh they just told me to subscribe, I guess I will now".

I like, I comment, I subscribe, I superchat even sometimes, but I have no particular interest in the little bell.

I don't know what it is but it's so weird when a viewer takes offense at being told what to do when the creator requests some support.

I hit the bell to remind me when there's a Nintendo direct or something but never for a regular youtuber upload.

Yes. It can be hard to garner support on YouTube and channels need the help. It also helps me find new videos from creators I like and it only takes a second

This.

Can't be upset at YouTubers for making a living.

Yes I use the bell for every Youtube channel I regularly watch, whether they tell me to or not.

I mean, I used to be super lazy about it and never liked or followed anything, but then some of my friends made channels and I realized how extraordinarily difficult it is to get support. I figured it cost me literally nothing, not even my time, to do, and it would help people, so I've been doing it more and more.

I don't even have a bell icon on my screen, which makes the request really strange.

No, but I usually visit Youtube through a link to my subscription page, so I don't really see the point.

Pretty much this. I get why they do it, and acknowledge the realities of the algorithm, but I'd rather view their content on my terms.

Yes, for channels I regularly visit. YouTube is a major part of my entertainment so I want to support those that entertain me, so they can continue to do so.

For whatever reason even if you've subscribed to a youtuber you will not always get notified when they post a new video. This is especially problematic when they have weird schedules where they never post (like Jon Tron) or go on breaks like sometimes Sports Nation or whatever did. So the bell basically means youtube does what it used to do before they added an extra step for no reason at all.

knowing this, if I did subscribe to any youtubers, I'd ring the bell

No, I don't really need to know the exact moment anyone uploads a video. I'll certainly subscribe to those I like though.

it's what actually notifies you when a video appears. In the top right there'll be a little red number to tell you that you have notifications, and if you have email notifications turned on it'll do that.

Subscribing doesn't really do that as much anymore, it just makes videos more likely to appear your feed when you open youtube and maybe notifies you sometimes.
