    This kind of already happens there though. Video view counts are visible and often way below a channel’s sub count.

    Sure, there are exceptions (viral video views often far exceeding the sub count), but by and large they’re a good metric for seeing how a channel is actually doing.

      But no one is making a thank you video because they reached a weekly active users metric.
