gman.objAccording to Tubefilter rankings, by the end of April 2023, DaFuq!?Boom! entered the fifty most viewed YouTube channels in the United States, at 33rd place. By June, the channel had achieved a milestone of five billion views, making it the most viewed YouTube channel in the US during that month. The editor, Sam Gutelle, noted that previously, the channel existed largely under the radar, except for a few animation diehards in the meme community.[25] The Daily Dot's offshoot publication Passionfruit suspected the popularity of the series was due to how the designs combined a simple, cute style with more uncanny elements, citing other popular characters like Sans and Siren Head.[18]
