Hey @TeamYouTube here's an idea. Why not have the real-time subscriber count reflect the highest subscriber count that channel ever obtained in real-time. That way, if it goes down, the cancel culture mob can't use it as a means to see their "downfall".
Highkey though nothing wrong with this idea. Even when the pewdiepie tseries livestreams were up one of them was pretty much endorsed and used by pewdiepie and even happy that they were using bitch lasagna and congratulations for their music choice.
