Currently, public sub counts are abbreviated in most but not all places across YouTube. In August, we’ll make this more consistent by always showing abbreviated sub counts publicly.

I don't see the point of this? Can there at least be an option to tap the sub number so the full amount pops up kind of how views work on mobile when opening the description?

Thousands of dollars go into UI/UX design on the YouTube platform, yet you come up with the best solution on the spot. How can YouTube be so close yet so far from getting things good.

It's not really the best. I think they should only show the abbreviated sub count of there's not enough space. If there is, show the full number. And actually, on mobile youtube already does this. If you expand and open the description, it shows the full number.

(if you make your browser window very small...) but yeah when you are making a responsive website, it is nice to be prepared for every cenario and possible window size.
