Get the AFKmug. Originally standing for "Absence From Keyboard", this term now standing for "Absence From sKreen" refers to the phenomenon where you feel missing out the latest YouTube videos whilst you've been unable to watch YouTube for extended periods of time. Similarly, going to bed whilst having not watched YouTube during the day is as unpleasant as going to bed whilst being hungry. This phenomenon is more commonly experienced by persons who have subscribed to lots of YouTube channels in a row (i.e. 600+ channels) compared to those who subscribe to few to no YouTube channels.
I thought I could take a short break from YouTube videos, but now I'm hit with serious AFK vibes—I've missed out on countless of new YouTube videos while I was away from YouTube!

For example, K-12 school campuses require students to collect smartphones during school hours while those having excessive screen time per day will get an eye. This policy is akcually meant to create conducive learning environments, even though there are common misconception among gamers and YouTube addict that this policy is meant to "condition" students to inevitable AFK moments that are going to happen to them during the rest of their young lives, even after high school graduation.
The school’s strict smartphone policy created an AFK-tolerant environment, helping students adapt to being offline during class, despite some kids grumbling about missing their favorite YouTube channels.

Stuck on the interstate roads located in the highlands with a dying battery and no signal, I found myself in a double AFK situation, missing out on all the new YouTube videos I’d been dying to watch!

"Yo dude, last night was so much fun, I AFK'd my girl."
Guy: "How'd you get that burn on your arm?"
Girl: "Oh this? My boyfriend AFK'd me when we were 14."

Get the AFKmug. AFK inflation refers the increase of the amount of screen time you're supposed to have in order to catch up latest YouTube videos that happens whilst the amount of screen time you're able to have remains the same. There are quite a few causative factors that can cause AFK inflation, e.g. having many YouTube channels uploading new videos at the same time.
After a week of being busy, I felt the effects of AFK inflation hit hard; with dozens of new uploads waiting for me, I realized I’d need to binge-watch for hours just to catch up latest YouTube videos!
