It feels good to help a small creator get past 111 million subs.
I swear PewDiePie is the first successfully retired YouTuber
Glad big creators like CinamonToastKen are helping desperate youtubers like pewdiwpie. Hopefully, he can help pewdiepie get past 111 million subs.
Hardstuck at 111 million subscribers is tough, happened to my friend once, hope Pewds manages to push through it.
It's hard to get new subs when you have all of them.
Putting Mr beast on the thumbnail and a controversial title is smart considering the current landscape of YouTube
Pewds is retired and doesnt take youtube seriously but he still pumps out golden nuggets like these that are entertaining as hell
The reason you are stuck is because you are #1 so we keep you there. 111
I hate it when small, underrated creators can't pass that one milestone they've always wanted to achieve. Keep going, PewDiePie, one day you'll reach 112M
Not stuck at 111M now! Pewds finally made it to 110M 💪
