The Favourite YouTuber Award is part of the Digital Awards category, which also includes Favourite Social Media Celebrity and Favourite Comedic Collaboration. The digital category was added to the awards in 2016, when Connor Franta was named Favourite YouTuber Star.
This is the first time that Felix has been nominated for a People’s Choice Award but he has won various awards previously, including the 2015 Streamy Award for Best Gaming Channel, Show, or Series, and the 2014 Teen Choice Award for Web Star: Gaming.
