When companies took over YouTube instead of individual creators.
-
Really shows the decline of individual creators and the use of corporations and content that generally lacks a soul
-
We went from most subscribed youtube personalities To most subscribed companies
-
Wonderful job! This is definitely missing some people who deleted their channels (like Chris Crocker). Renetto was also in the top-5 subscribed for a brief period in 2006.
-
Gotta give a ton of credit to Smosh and nigahiga. They’re practically the pioneers of youtube, yet they remained on this list for over a decade. Also pretty impressive that they both were the most subscribed channel twice, both of which were in different eras of youtube. The site changed a lot from the late 2000s to the early/mid 2010s.

Tre fact that PewDiePie sat on top for almost 10 years is crazy. In YouTube time, that really is a lifetime.
-
Why does the graph of the growth of tseries look similar to covid
-
Its interesting how much the T-Series competition impacted Pewdiepies growth but not T-Series. They've had the same trajectory, which Pewdie lined up with for a few months, and then returned to his old rate of growth
-
T series graph is exactly like india's internet users growth graph
-
I knew Jenna Marbles was popular but never knew she held #2 in subs for a short time.
-
Bro the nostalgia this video brings and remembering all of the memories from these various creators and years really almost brought a tear to my eye. How times have changed man.

7:44 The enemy has entered the chat.

Typically I watch smaller creators on YouTube, but I found this channel that had just hit one millions subs in March of 2018 through a funny video involving inflatable dinosaurs. I instantly subscribed. That was MrBeast. I never thought I'd stumble upon something like that on YouTube.
-
Pewdiepie’s sub growth along with many other big individual creators slowed after March 2014 due to an algorithm change, imagine if that never happened and he was still gaining like 1.5m subs each month for years. Also MrBeast is on his way to beating Cocomelon and SET India.

I remember the Pewdiepie vs Tseries that was so good omg
-
I'm so happy to see an update of this! This is some of my favourite content on YouTube. I have a few minor PewDiePoints which I imagine are victims of the resolution 1. PewDiePie beat Smosh to 12M 2. PewDiePie beat YouTube Spotlight to 20M 3. PewDiePie was not passed by T-Series in November 4. PewDiePie beat SETIndia to 110M 5. PewDiePie is probably closer to 112 than 111M at present (though maybe it's better not to guess)!

2016 was the year in which YouTube became corporate. Luckily I didn't see that era, only the beginnings.

YouTube is no longer "You", now it's "Them"
