Should a YouTuber worry about the domant subscribers who don't even watch the content in his/her channel.
And do they have any effect in a channel??

No don't worry about dormant subs since people subs to heaps of channels and they mightn't see that you've not new content or have notifications enabled instead just focus on the people who've not subscribed while also looking at your current audience. I think it's good when you can get 10% of your current subscribers viewing a new video so just keep forging forward.

If the dormant subscribers have channels of their own, I'd just swing over to them and leave a quality comment on their recent few videos to remind them that you're still around :)

That could help bring them back!

Good call @Hiking with Shawn way to be pro-active!

And I agree, there is little you can do about dormant subs. It's going to happen. If these dormant subs are from Sub 4 sub practices and they account for a majority of your subs then that could be a problem... but unless 200 of your subs are from sub 4 sub you haven't dug a hole too deep to climb out of.

So long story short no, don't worry about them. Focus on future subs and keep pushing.
