unsubbing

Quitting a channel

Unsubbing is canceling a subscription, especially to an online channel, newsletter, or streaming service.

The word comes from internet culture, where subscribing to content creators is common: I'm unsubbing from his channel after that video.

It can also mean ending any recurring membership: I've been unsubbing from services I don't use.
