Videonundation (short for "video inundation") is a phenomenon where your YouTube homepage is inundated by endless video recommendations due to subscribing to insanely large numbers of YouTube channels (at least 600 channels), hence there are many channels who upload new videos to YouTube at the same time.

After I hit 700 channel subscriptions, my YouTube homepage turned into a videonundation—there's just no way I can keep up with all these new videos!
