PewDiePie (real name Felix Kjellberg) is a famous YouTuber who uploaded a video stating how YouTube is trying to kill his channel. The video progresses with Felix's allegations on the YouTube video recommendation algorithm which throws random videos and fails to show videos for which the users has subscribed. He further added that he just want to quit the channel and create a new one to start fresh. If what Felix said is true, he is just half a million subscribers away from deleting his account. 

PewDieDie also included in his video how Daily Vlogs attracted just a small amount of hits wherever the occasional videos were amongst the highest watched on his channel.  He clearly indicates a video that attracted just about 2 million views which could be the reason he wants to quit the PewDiePie YouTube Channel.
