'Channels' Solved My Biggest Problem With My YouTube Recommendations ...Middle East

News by : (Live Hacker) -

That's great, but it's also something of a problem—many of us use YouTube in different ways and for different purposes at different times, and that can make organizing and finding new content tricky. Just because you've spent four hours trying to troubleshoot a car engine problem doesn't mean you necessarily ever want to see a vehicle maintenance video ever again.

For me, the issue is my love of lo-fi and classical music mixes—vocal-free videos that last for hours, which I put on in the background while I'm working. I watch a lot of them, but I only watch them when I need them. Yet because there are so many in my watch history, whenever I want to actively watch other kinds of things, I'm met with only a screen full of similar chill-out videos for study and meditation.

The best hack I've found, and one which I now use daily, is YouTube Channels. Think of these as separate YouTube accounts within your YouTube account—you don't need a completely different Google account to use them, and you can switch between them easily from the YouTube web interface (you won't even lose your place in the video you're currently watching when you do it).

How to set up YouTube Channels

To get started with channels on the web version of YouTube, log in, click your profile avatar (top right), then select Switch account > View all channels. Click Create a channel and you can start giving your new channel a bit of an identity: Right away, you'll be asked to give your channel a name, handle, and profile picture.

At any time on YouTube on the web, you can click your channel avatar (top right), then View your channel and Customize channel to set a description, contact info, and other details.

Switching between or removing YouTube Channels

To switch channels on the web, click your profile picture (top right), then Switch account. On mobile, head to the You tab, then tap the cog icon (top right) and Switch or manage account. To remove a channel you no longer need (and all its details), click your profile picture, then View your channel > Customize channel > Settings > Channel > Advanced settings > Remove YouTube content.
