Recently I maxed out my "Watch Later" playlist on YouTube. Turns out you can't have more than 5000 videos in it

Fun fact, you can also max out your number of subscriptions! Don't ask me how I know...

it would put too much load on their servers if you could poll a million different channels for new videos at once

they said how, as in how where you able to do that, it seems impossible to me!

You answered to a why, why would youtube put a limit.

@martineski clarified it.

Like they ever poll your subscriptions lol.

Hm? I don't understand that response.

when you open the subscriptions page Youtube has to ask its servers for new videos from all of the people you subscribe to. So getting that list could become expensive for them if you were able to have an unlimited number of subscibed channels

Nice, I'm on my "Watched 3" playlist so I stop rewatching things and only realizing halfway through.
