Livecountsedit

Livecountsedit is a website that allows you to make fake subscriber and follower counts for fun.

There could be a few reasons for this.

If the site was recently updated, your browser may still have the old version cached. To fix this, visit this article.

Bugs, errors, or glitches: Please report them in our Discord server.

JavaScript needs to be enabled on your browser, and make sure you're not blocking any parts of the site (or external libraries that the site uses, such as Highcharts for graphs) using firewalls, antivirus software, or browser extensions.

Corrupted save data (for counters that use save data): This could be a result of a bug, importing sketchy/corrupted save files, or pasting stuff into the browser console. If this is the case, reset your data (if possible), if not, then you will need to clear your browser's local storage for lcedit.com. You can clear local storage easily by going to the main page, scrolling down, and pressing the red button that says "RESET ALL DATA."

This is an issue that is known to occur on Safari on the YT Studio theme since version 6.10.5. To fix this, you can use an older version (v6.9) or use the "set margin on top of count" setting. Unfortunately we don't have any Apple devices to test with but if anyone wants to contribute a fix to this, feel free to do so in our Github repository.

You've probably found out that refreshing works while trying to figure this out, but you open it by clicking the speech bubble with the exclamation mark in it on the top right corner, to the left of the "X".

It's a (currently discontinued) concept for a version of Livecountsedit where you can make your own layouts and customize counters with draggable elements. You can check it out here.

Make a fork of our Github repository, make changes in your fork, and then create a pull request on the original with your fork.

Livecountsedit gets updated whenever the owners feel like it. Occasionally, plans and leaks for future Livecountsedit updates may be announced in our Discord server, but please note that updates are never 100% guaranteed.

To create suggestions for Livecountsedit, join our Discord server.

As stated in the previous question, join our Discord server to create suggestions. Additionally, we will only consider suggestions if we believe they make for a good addition to Livecountsedit rather than being solely for the purpose of being as realistic to MDM's livestreams as possible. Stuff like refresh screens and the six-digit random number that goes after the "Top 50 Subscriber Count" are unlikely to be considered, but if a certain feature is popular within the community, people may contribute them as add-ons, which are posted in our Discord server.

We currently aren't planning to add new counters, but you can still suggest them in our Discord server.

Top 50 is by far the most popular in our Discord community for fake subscriber world series, so that's why it tends to get all the attention. Don't worry, updates to other counters are coming soon!

No. Livecountsedit is a fake subscriber/follower counter website, not a fake analytics site. Suggestions for fake analytics will not be considered.

It's a way for you to save your data as a file that you can then import later. To download a save file:

Livecountsedit/Livecounts.net: Open the menu and press one of the "Export data" buttons.

SocialBlade/Akshatmittal: They are in the "Import & Export Data" options tab at the bottom.

Studio: Click the "Export data" button after scrolling down on the menu.

Top 50: Click the "Export data" button in the "Import & Export Data" settings tab (2nd to last tab)

View and compare counters: coming soon!

Refer to this article. Note that with a recent update, reasonable save files for Top 50, SocialBlade, and Akshatmittal will not encounter this issue due to using another browser storage method that doesn't have low limitations. For the Livecountsedit, Livecounts.net, and YT Studio counters, their saves are still using local storage so they are subject to a 5 MiB (binary megabytes) limit combined.

On the Livecountsedit and Livecounts.net counters, a private save contains API update settings while public saves strip them out. Avoid sharing private saves if they contain sensitive data such as API credentials.

This is a bug with Discord on Android. To get around this, simply renaming the file to a .txt instead of .json should work. Note that the save file can be imported into Livecountsedit perfectly fine as a .txt file. Note that save files created after June 4, 2025 use the MIME type text/plain despite being a .json file in order to get around this issue.

Livecountsedit and Livecounts.net are compatible with each other but not with any other counters. This is due to them being our "guinea pigs" for a new, but now abandoned save format. Top 50, SocialBlade, and Akshatmittal saves are all compatible with each other, and Top 50 has an option to import YT Studio saves.

The exact details on how each option works are a bit advanced if you don't know coding, but you can use one of the mixerno.space presets in Top 50, SocialBlade, and Akshatmittal counters, and copy over the corresponding settings from one of these counters for other counters (they will receive the preset feature in the future). Make sure you configure the YouTube channel ID, or create new counters with ID field set to the corresponding ID on Top 50. You can convert a YouTube username to an ID using this tool.

If you use the "Force updates" option, the counter will be the real sub count, otherwise, you can make your own estimations for abbreviated YouTube counts. The SocialBlade and Akshatmittal counters come with an "overestimation leeway" option to specify how much to bring the count down by if you overestimate. For example, if your count hits 101M but the API still says 100M, you can use a 10% leeway to drop it down to 100.9M, or a 20% leeway to drop to 100.8M. Using a 0% leeway will drop to 100,999,999.

Also, remember to save your API settings! They don't get saved automatically.

We used to have a button to automatically import them, but we removed it due to copyright concerns. You can find community-made lists like this one or copy from a save file shared in our Discord server.

Make sure you set the fire icon gain type to "Hour", and add them in order from highest to lowest so they take priority in the correct order.

Watch this video by MDM himself for the exact rates:

We have a gain calculator for that.

Mean and standard deviation gains offer an option for a (possibly) more realistic count growth. For example, instead of being confined to a minimum and maximum gain, you add a mean value, and the standard deviation controls the spread. It is a normal, aka Gaussian distribution, so values closer to the mean are more likely.

For example, if your mean is 20 and your standard deviation is 5, most gains should be within 5 (or 1 standard deviation), so 15-25.

As a rule of thumb, around 68% of the time you get a gain within 1 standard deviation (so 15-25 in the example), 95% within 2 standard deviations (10-30), and 99.7% within 3 standard deviations (5-35).

Even if you use min/max gains, the total gain after a long period of time will be approximately normally distributed thanks to the Central Limit Theorem, so we also use this to simulate offline gains and to estimate gains with our gain calculator. Who knew that we would use actual statistics when talking about "YouTube Stats"?

Straight from MG has a tutorial on YouTube:

You should use a window capture source. For a tutorial on using browser sources in Top 50, please see this article. Browser sources currently do not work on other counters that use save files.

No, but it is appreciated!
