【New Folder (2014)】

"YouTube doesn’t unsubscribe people from channels."

That's one thing that YouTube exec Zindzi McCormick wants to clear up once and New Folder (2014)for all.

"We’ve actually looked at over 100 individual cases and so far we haven’t been able to find any underlying glitch," McCormick, who serves as YouTube's subscriptions product manager, said in a Q&A video with YouTube user interface researcher Renato Verdugo.

The video, uploaded on Wednesday, is a response to recent complaints from a a handful of frustrated creators who claim they have seen their video views decline and their subscribers suddenly disappear.

Some YouTubers even say they have lost 30 to 40 percent of their usual views.

The general theory is that YouTube has a new algorithm that has caused glitches. Although some in the internet community have come up with a conspiracy theory that YouTube boosts ads on the “trending” tab and videos with more likes and comments.

PewDiePie and Ethan Klein — one half of the H3H3 Productions —were two major digital stars who ignited a flurry of discussion over the issue.

PewDiePie even said he would delete his channel if it reached 50 million subscribers (which later turned out to be a joke).

Still, YouTube maintains nothing is actually wrong with the platform.

"Every video that a creator uploads will show up in the subs feed for all of their subscribers by default," McCormick said.

Verdugo said the team plans on sourcing additional questions and concerns in the comments section of the video.

They hope to do more Q&A's on YouTube Help's channel in the future.
