Funny that for me it works exactly the opposite; I'm subscribed to a lot of channels that upload many videos that don't interest me, however youtube's algorithm is pretty spot-on with videos that I will be very interested in watching, whether they come from channels I'm subscribed to, or not.

You're describing the advantage and disadvantage of the YouTube recommendation algorithm. It's really effective at recommending videos I'd be interested in/would click on.

However it's so good that it'll easily burn hours of my time I'd otherwise spend doing something more fulfilling.
