A lot of Youtube channels are reporting declining viewership lately.

Fun times. Looks like a lot of channels are seeing a decline not just Linus. Hes just the latest to talk about it.

Then I saw this article as well and thought I would share.

Anyone here youtube creators? Are you seeing the same thing, a general downturn in viewership?

Super deep dive into games and their lore mostly, although the super long ones tend to be named like, 'a quick retrospective of game'

    I watch a huge range, from 100 subs to 20m. I've spent years making a decent sub list to watch so I avoid most issues about trash content.

    Fair enough, I use mine as basically a replacement for any other streaming platform, so it's more about entertainment than raw usefulness.

    My sub list is ever growing, at about 150 now. I don't watch a lot of what's put out by them but that's where I start when I want to watch something. The main YouTube feed is... Unreliable at best
