Are either of those things indicative of "fastest growth ever"? Maybe 100 million users, but we live in a world where it's hard to know how meaningful that is (ie Tucker's X videos getting 300 million views).

MrBeast[0] has about 182m subscribers, and it is probably easier to get a subscriber on youtube than a user.

Views are easy to inflate, I wouldn't even consider it in the same ballpark. This video[1] of Vivaldis 4 seasons has about 1/4 billion views.

The shortest time to 100 million users is almost a definition of the quickest growing company.
