Current events aside, kinda insane how a Youtube channel with 6.6 million subscribers can get less than 500k views on a month old video

- sakopov 3y agoNot really insane because it's not evergreen content.
- resoluteteeth 3y agoI don't think it's unusual for creators who put out videos on various topics extremely frequently when most of their subscribers aren't watching every video. It basically just means that the average subscriber is watching ~2 of his videos a month.
- mrguyorama 3y agoYoutube turned subscription numbers into a gameable metric for some time, so they got heavily inflated, so then Youtube basically made them meaningless. Youtube rarely even shows your subscribers your new videos nowadays, and for many creators, subscribers are about 20% or less of their total views.
- ToDougie 3y agoI'm subscribed to hundreds of channels, and I rarely see their content in my feed. It is so bizarre.
- resoluteteeth 3y agoIn general it seems like if you keep ignoring videos from a given channel you're subscribed to, they will stop appearing most of the time in the default view despite the fact that you are subscribed, although they'll still appear if you go to the "subscriptions" view. Basically in the default view I'm not sure it even makes much difference whether you're actually subscribed to a given channel or not; it seems like it's more about whether or not you've viewed the channel's videos recently.
