    Lewis Rossman.

    I have no valid reason for this. I fundamentally agree with the guy on most things for the dozen or so vids I have seen. Right to repair etc etc.

    But something about him just comes across as entitled and annoying. Like even if I knew the was right I would want to disagree with him.

    VSauce, all three of them. They were peak YouTube way back when, but there was this long pause in videos shortly after they built their big studio, and VSauce 1 started focusing entirely on shorts about uninteresting things and VSauce 3 stopped making videos entirely. 1 and 2 are kinda back at making videos, but their quality jumped off a cliff. Feels like they’re making videos out of obligation.

    MxR Mods. Two reasons for this, firstly is that I kinda stopped playing Skyrim. The other being that he started focusing almost entirely on lewd mods.

    Kurtzhezacht, because their political stance became more and more apparent (billionaires will save the future).

    Meidas Touch. Clickbait headlines and thumbnails, unrealistically optimistic takes on things. I want information, not bullshit.

    Surprised it has shown up here already but Bon Appetit. I was watching a lot of it over lockdown in 2020, and then at the end of that year the channel blew up thanks to a mass staff exodus due to discrimination.

    Marquez Brownlee. I lost trust in his sincerity and in his personal life he’s an asshole with multiple speeding offenses.

    Unbox therapy. Infomercials. The whole influencer thing does not influence me.

    Techmoan. I used to be super into his content on old obscure stuff but it fell off a cliff for me a couple years ago. Instantly bored.

    AvE when he started getting right wing preachy. Guy had a winning formula and destroyed it.

    Electroboom. Similar to techmoan… Booooooring. I don’t care about the outlets in whatever country you are visiting this month.

    John Oliver. It’s too depressing to find out what levels of depravity and corruption the ruling class is up to. I can’t handle it anymore.

    CinemaSins - it just became cringe

    Good Mythical Morning - too ‘producrd’ and they started doing gross shit

    Mysterious Universe (YouTube and podcast) - They became rightwing antivax, anti-abortion, anti-mask, homophobic, transphobic, racist losers over the course of 2 years after COVID.

    The Gaming Historian - he stopped making videos (good for him to stop before it became a chore)

    The Escapist - everyone left for Second Wind after they tried to lay off people

    A long time ago I watched DistroTube a lot. He made content about Linux and Emacs, just chatting about it into a mic. It was relaxing content.

    Then one day he uploaded a video about his gun, why he has a gun and gun rights and shit. He had all sorts of dumb takes, I don’t even remember. After that I just couldn’t watch him anymore.

    Whistlindiesel, I already was getting bad vibes from him when he started doing literal vigelante harassment of folks, when he did a video with cops, and his fawning over the Killdozer idiot. Wrapping a lambo in Trump shit was the most “last straw” last straw in history.

    Crazy Russian Hacker/Taras Kul, videos were really explaining science in an interesting and funny way but now seem like TeleShopping but for useless items.
