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?

    Sadly I need premium simply because I am watching on an Android TV and I am not trusting third party clients with my google account.
    Too much stuff is associated with it (monetary)
