I was so confused looking at the channel because it has over 5 billion views but only 4 videos with over a million views (the most viewed of which has 3.7M), but then I checked the shorts tab

I think the channel is almost exclusively focused on shorts, pumping them out pretty much daily, and so that's what the audience is there to watch for the most part

oh i see, that makes more sense. I was like how does this guy have such a horrible views:subs ratio but that makes sense

i've tried to trim my subscriptions on youtube over time because there's a lot of bloat since i don't use the platform that often, so maybe people go "haha funny vid" hit sub and then never look at the website again
