I can see it working on kids. Maybe because I only watch YouTube on browser not logged in, so it’s a default thing to not like and subscribe. I really only tend to login to the app if there’s a smaller creator I’d like to give a boost to.
When a channel aimed at a grown up audience does it, especially when they do the stupid ringing bell animation, I just find it tacky and it makes me NOT want to subscribe. Smaller channels getting started I can give a pass to, but bigger channels? It’s kinda sad.
Moriah Elizabeth has 10M subscribers and I don’t remember her ever asking for likes and subscribes (and a lot of her fanbase IS kids).
