Understandably a lot of talk about YouTubers who have changed for the worse, but there have been a few who IMO have changed for the better. Granted, a good number are more towards the burnt-out end of the spectrum, and considering retirement within a few years.

Jacksepticeye for example, used to put on a more energetic "youtubery" persona that appealed to the algorithm, and now he's a lot more down to earth and considerably more pleasant to watch. That's not to say the persona wasn't still him, or that he was entirely fake for all those years, but I find his new content much more enjoyable than his older stuff - even if there is less of it.

Happens with podcasts too. Used to be an avid follower of MFM. Then it stopped being about murders and about mental health, survivors and having nice feefees all the time. Not that I’m against that. I have podcasts I listen to that dedicated to that stuff that built their content to a topic and stick to it.

But when you shift the major focus of your content especially when your title is leading a subject it’s super distracting and annoying and shakes some trust that a person gives an actual shit about their listeners and isn’t just waking off into randomness with an audience. Like just call it ‘the view’ then.

Dunkey hasn't released a funny video in years. His new material is just so flat.

I hate when single YouTube channels start to become companies. I can see it is already happening with some channels I watch. That is, I can feel them making videos for the money, and not clearly for the enjoyment.

Me with CinemaSins.

CinemaSins: nitpicks something

Me: "That's literally answered five minutes from now in the movie."

CinemaSins: nitpicks the thing that explained the thing they were nitpicking

Me: tears hair out in frustration

How I felt when the Simpsons turned from hilarious to annoying. I was genuinely sad.

H3 / Ethan and Hila.

I watched Phillip Defranco religiously from 2007 until bout 2018/2019. I'm not sure if he changed, or I just got older and aged out of his demographic. Always talking celebrity nonsense and no-name youtubers. Still seems like a good guy though.

I never had to do that. But somehow I got subbed to Sniperwolf or whatever and I have no idea who they are but their notifications were booming until I unsubbed.

Joshua Weissman over here. Dude just became repetitive childish annoying memes. Papa needs to shut the fuck up and just cook.

Thats me trying to leave Facebook, knowing I'll lose access to lots of family photos from relatives now passed away.

Hm... I don't get easily attached to people and I easily get detached to people. I was a fan of Patrick Bet David, until I realized he's just another Zionist shill. Same with Jordan Peterson, another Zionist shill.

Laggin24x used to make incredible COD Custom Zombies videos. Then he switched to ARK and Fortnite clickbait and his content fell off a cliff.
