YouTube subscriptions are no longer alphabetical

It used to be that when you go to your "subscribed channels" they were PROPERLY displayed in alphabetical order (you know, so you could find what you're looking for), but now they are displayed in the order in which you subscribed to them. What kind of millennial common core math thinking makes any sense to displaying your channels out of alphabetical order? What if you (like many of us) have hundreds of channels you like to watch? This is insanely stupid, and there isn't a way to put them back in the PROPER order!
This is more of a complaint than a question.

Re: YouTube subscriptions are no longer alphabetical

You should take your complaint to Youtube/Google since they're solely responsible for how their app works.  I doubt they're interested since they, like a lot of companies these days, seem to do whatever they please.

P.S. - who knew there was a @Youtube user here?  Probably not really Youtube and it hasn't visited in over four years.

Re: YouTube subscriptions are no longer alphabetical

This is not a Roku issue. Roku does not write the app. YouTube/Google made the change, and it's not just Roku. I have a Fire TV and Google TV, and they all changed at the same time. They are now in some order based on how often you watch them. I don't know if there is any way to force it back to alphabetical on a TV. Some Google searching finds many posts from other angry TV users...
