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.

Ooooft, rounding down 400k subs? This is dreadful for creators, not helpful for people wanting to work with them (like myself), and useless for audiences. Who is this for, exactly?

Apparently it’s being done to stop cancel culture or something. I.e live-streams that watch people’s sub counts grow and fall.

Ahhhh; okay, well that actually DOES make sense then. Would be nice if it was perhaps optional?
