The integration is pending removal for Home Assistant Core 2021.5.0
Here's a quick alternative I whipped up. You will need a YouTube API key (free, instructions).
sensor:
- platform: rest
name: YouTube
resource: "https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=statistics&id=UCbX3YkedQunLt7EQAdVxh7w&key=YOUR_YOUTUBE_API_KEY_HERE"
scan_interval: 3600 # one hour
value_template: '{{ value_json["items"][0]["statistics"].subscriberCount }}'
json_attributes_path: "$.items.[0].statistics"
json_attributes:
- viewCount
- subscriberCount
- videoCount
This doesn't scrape the Social Blade website but instead uses YouTube's official API, so it should remain stable and have more up to date information (as you're removing the "middle man" in this case). That example is for HA's YouTube channel, replace the ID part with your own channel ID obviously.

goodmorning, i'm having problems in the last days with this, now i've figured out that the integration is no more avaiable.
