Why Is Channel Rating Important for Managing YouTube Subscriptions?

With the Channel groups and rating extension, YouTube folders already allow filtering subscriptions by groups, but this method lacks the flexibility provided by numerical ratings.

When you filter subscriptions by group, you must manually click the corresponding checkbox in the filter tree. If you want to switch to a different category, you often need to search for another checkbox that might be far from the previous one, which wastes time.

In contrast, the channel rating feature lets you adjust the minimum rating value in one place, eliminating the need to search through the group checkboxes.

For example, you can assign a higher rating to channels whose shows you always want to watch, and a lower rating to those you can skip. Depending on your available time, you can quickly change the minimum rating value with a single button to see videos that fit your schedule.

While the YouTube folder name helps you filter by topic, the channel rating helps limit the list of videos regardless of topic, making subscription management more efficient and personalized.
