Affected version

23.1

Steps to reproduce the bug

Import subscriptions (I have 486 not sure if that matters), go to subscriptions tab and click All. It only loads 6 days of videos and if i want more I have to use regular youtube.com or load videos channel by channel or in arbitrarily divided channel groups maybe.

Expected behavior

Youtube's subscription feed will load up 3+ years of all my subscribed channel's videos chronologically. Probably more I have just never gone further.

Actual behavior

It loads an arbitrary number of videos which limits the usability of newpipe compared to youtube.com and is just laughably insufficient.

Screenshots/Screen recordings

No response

Logs

Not applicable.

Affected Android/Custom ROM version

Lineage 18.1 with microG

Affected device model

OnePlus 7T HD1905

Additional information

Here is a reddit post i made about this a few days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/NewPipe/comments/vxihnz/subscriptionswhats_new_loads_a_totaly_arbirtary/

So assuming that there isn't some kind of youtube/google API limitation to the number of videos that can be retrieved it would have to be some kind of arbitrary number. Continuing to assume that I must ask why is this not user configurable? I understand it would take longer to load but a 5 or 6 day digital time horizon is just not usable for me and is frankly just bug report worthy. I sometimes take breaks from YouTube and want to not miss things becuase of some arbitrary limitation.

I just ran across this same issue on a high volume channel. In my case it was NFL, which at this moment has uploaded 20 new videos within the past 24 hours.

Unless I miscounted, the number of videos added to the feed is 30, which is only 1.5 days worth of content in my example case. This would be less of an issue, if feed updates could be scheduled/run automatically, since I don't even open the app every day some weeks.

The fast mode is disabled and when I visit this or any other channel, older videos that were missing from the feed get added properly to the list as I scroll down.
