They have approximately now lost over 5000 subscribers which equates to about $25000 per month or $300000 per year in lost revenue.

How does 5k subs equate to 25k revenue a month? I know quite a few YouTubers with more than that and they only make a few hundred a month.

It must cost 5 dollars a month to be a member.

It's not just ad-based revenue they're losing. It's a monthly subscription people are cancelling.

Those are floatplane subs not YouTube subs

Subs on Floatplane pay money monthly like Onlyfans or Patreon. Subs on youtube don't pay money.
