@thediyworld A lot quit watching due to harassment in the comments. Really? I doubt that very much. Your blocking and deleting habits are still there, plus it’s not harassment to criticise. People are mostly criticising you, not other commenters.
The bell icon has nothing to do with videos showing up in a subscriber’s feed.
The majority of people stop watching you because of your low quality (and in many cases boring) videos. Doesn’t that tell you something?
There is also the category of subs that wake up to the real you, start asking questions you can’t answer truthfully, so you block them and they become “trolls”. That’s what happened to John Thayer and his wife. You did that, you’re responsible for continually pissing off people and turning them against you.
