This is so backwards @TeamYouTube @SusanWojcicki A user clicking the Subscribe button demonstrates their intent; They want to watch all of that creators content and be notified of it. Why should there be another layer with a bell you have to press? This is damaging small creatorshttps://twitter.com/Chaosxsilencer/status/977197830854062080 …
This is not what you want. Most people are subscribed to hundreds, if not thousands, of channels. Setting notifications on by default would just cause them to disable YouTube notifications altogether. Besides, your videos get lost in a sea of notifications.

The best businesses always think about the user first, then about making money. You, as a business, should think first about how the viewers of your channel interacts with YouTube, instead of just greedily think about how you can get notifications to more and more viewers.

If you want people to enable notifications, just make awesome content that they don’t want to miss. If you estimate the average intelligence of your viewership thus that you don’t think they know how the bell button works, remind them about it in every video.
