Nobody “stays tuned” anymore, except to UI metaphors that linger long past peak meaningfulness. Tuning a radio or TV has evolved to finding and saving frequency presets during setup that we then occasionally click through when we’re not streaming on-demand non-live media feeds.

The modern equivalent is to "subscribe". Given the limited & constantly-in-flux bandwith of attention, subscribing is akin to utilising one of the limited presets on the old wireless device. You might tune in or you might tune out.

True. The relationship has been modified to require the tune-in buy-in from both sides - Audience to stay tuned/subscribed and channel to stay at the selected frequency/subscription-worthy.
