So, it happened. Jack reached 10 million subs. Pewdiepie and Markiplier's entries are confirmed, and I believe, after some updating to this entry, it is about time to confirm him too. He is clearly as relevant and present as those 2 guys today, and growing faster subs-wise. So, it just seems like the objectively logical thing to do, regardless of what anyone thinks of him here.
