After over a week of trying to get a meeting with @TeamYouTube we finally have one scheduled for an hour from now. If you have any constructive feedback to share with them regarding the abbreviated subscriber numbers (via the api), reply to this tweet.
Yes, at the moment there is no good way of recording analytics and there will not be a solution for a long time. Eventually there will be an update to the analytics on the creator side, the best thing to is wait and try to communicate with YouTube as a community.

And that is exactly what's being done here. Social Blade is speaking to YouTube about the API changes out of a concern that many YouTubers also share, and it is openly asking for our input in talking points that might be brought to YouTube's attention...
