Break - how long until subs leave
- Thread starter HypahYT
- Start date
I think most of the dedicated subs will stick around, the only ones that will leave will probably be ones that weren't really watching and this has given them a reason to unsub. I still don't see why anyone would unsub if a channel takes a break, they get no notifications if they stick around only once the channel is back. If the unsub they will just never know when the channel is back...
Unlikely anyone would unsubscribe unless you were taking a super long break without warning. If you are going to be gone for an extended period of time it would probably be good to let your viewers know.
Though honestly any kind of break at all it would probably be best to let them know. For example if you upload daily and are taking a few days off you should let them know so they don't freak out.
It seems you did let them know though so you already have it covered. You'll be fine.

I was not uploading anything for a month or so ..and nobody left me.. ( cuz I almost did not have anyone anyway) and then some left after I uploaded some new videos...so I thought : they must have really hated my new work 
D anyway, I think don't worry too much. If you need, just take the break and get back to your channel whenever you are ready. The ones who liked you in the first place will still be there waiting for your new creations
Good luck!!!

If you mentioned you are going on a short break then chances are no one will leave. If you leave it as it is without a note then chances are some might go after some time.
If your previous videos helped or entertained your audience or subscribers then, they won't leave. Most of all organic subscribers won't leave your channel because, they subscribed you for a reason. Means, you've few videos that makes them happy to watch. So, don't worry about losing your subscribers. Yes, if you upload silly and ******* ass videos like irrelevant videos on your channel then, you might be lose your subcribers.
im back I lose and gained lol I think overall I ended up losing 1 but im uploading daily nowdepends on how much you upload usually. but if you make a video where you tell that you wil be on holiday for a while. then you lose the less subs
Next time try what I did. You can check it out if you want. I posted a short video explaining my absence and included my future plans and a call to action.
I would say some people may not unsubscribe but they may forget about you. The only way you be forgotten about is when you stop pushing content on your channel.
When i went on break for a few months from October 2015 i lost a decent amount of subs over the time i had a "break"
but alot returned once they found out i was back to some extent.
My channel is now bigger then ever.. even though im not uploading and recording on the scale i was before i went on break

Well, you can always like upload a lot of videos beforehand, there is a scheduled option within your upload section (in the drop down list), so use that if you're going on a holiday, any and all creators of YouTube should use that option if they're going away for couple of days, weeks, month, cos then your subscribers have something to watch in worthwhile.
