Subscribers count still going down

I noticed the other day that I hadn’t been seeing their videos on my main feed, so I went to the channel page and realized they’ve dipped below the 8M subscribers mark

I know they’ve made “jokes” about how their subscriber number had plateaued/was slowly going down, but I wonder if/when they’ll actually start to worry and maybe shift their tactic. Because presumably lower YouTube subscribers will lead to stagnant 2nd Try members, meaning even less revenue

Also just a side note, I feel like they’ve been blaming a lot of this decrease in interest on the Ned scandal and not the fact that maybe people don’t like their current content
