From the early days of viral sensations to the present era of content creation, male YouTubers have always dominated the platform.
The YouTube OGs remember when nigahiga became the most subscribed YouTube channel in late 2009 after racing against Smosh since 2007, and who doesnโt know PewDiePie, who was no.1 for an impressive 2050 days (that’s 5 years and 7 months!) before battling with Indian media conglomerate T-Series.
