seems to make sense on the surface. inactive users are kind of a useless metric.

I thought they already are doing that?

That’s news to me. They took away subscriber numbers? YouTubers still talk about them.

And this is the number behind the plaques they send out to people. I can’t image them stopping that. They won’t send plaques based on weekly average activity numbers.

I was thinking of the drop in views that some creators are reporting... not subscribers. My bad!
