The " its 2020 ill tell my kids about you you were my childhood" i felt so hard. So many creators who shaped the person i am today have just gone and its so sad to think about how my child might never be inspired like i was since now a large majority of content is brainrot.

Personally for me... I stopped watching because of the girl host. (I think it is his daughter) Nate was awesome.. Kelly grew on me after a few episodes.. (Yes, I could not stand Kelly in the beginning, but 2-3 episodes and I enjoyed her work/contribution). Kelly's replacement (She had/has purple hair or pink or something) I could not handel. She was "acting" like "I'm untouchable god like status" I gave it a solid 8-10 videos but I could not. Since she came along the content "suck balls". There were more "cheap" content.. It became all boring since she arrived. I recently watch a random video.. They used eggs to see which teeth whiting works best.. Basically for me... I stopped watching because of her.. ("Kelly's replacement girl")

I don't think it had anything to do with the KZbin algorithm. I stopped watching because after Grant passed it turned into a bunch of silly shit that can't be called science or even learning. They defintiely weren't making cool shit anymore. Like instead of a video about how to do or make something cool we got videos like 'can you clear snow with a blow torch?'. Just stupid shit that most people already know the answer to.

Tkor was the one reason I came to love science. When I was 8-9 I adored just coming home and just watching experiment after experiment that were all so fascinating with a slight violent undertone😅. After Grant's passing Nate and Callie were just trying to keep the channel together but the moment it went from melting galium to melting lollipops we could tell it was heading south. Looking at the channel right now all the thumbnails look a lot more childish started kinda alienating og viewers. We understand that change can be necessary but what they have done thus far is just vile. The biggest mistake was getting rid of nate and callie. The moment Callie left it was no longer the king of random it was the villagers of random. Overall the channel is a lost cause and just went from "look at the science" to "oooo pretty colors"

I stopped watching when Nate and Callie left. I’m sure Grace is a great person, but she didn’t have the “tv personality” that Callie and Nate had. To me, her passion just didn’t come through in the videos. Callie was like a kid in a candy store and it was so entertaining to watch. Again, absolutely no hate toward Grace, but she just wasn’t it for me. It’s so sad to see that even with the return of the channel towards its original content, the channel views have almost died off

Because when Grant (rip) handled it, it was about science and doing really cool stuff. When he sadly passed they still did science and cool stuff but started adding in obviously sponsored content trying to hide it as science, in the end its pretty much just a long version of dumb tiktoks now.

The probably was steering away from more industrial and engineering based projects, and even when grants projects were simpler he used those simple concepts and explained how they can be used in various contexts I’m excited for their new host, he doesn’t seem as afraid to get his hands dirty with scarier types of projects, Nate and Callie were great but the content they were hosting just wasn’t for me, hoping this new era of TKOR that seems to be coming into shape will take elements from the entire history of the channel and do great things in honor of a great man

My theory is that it will come to the point where the TKOR channels get deleted permanently, however, the videos that are actually good and memorable will stay and the 5-minute-crafts-based videos will be deleted. These non-deleted videos may be transferred to another source as an archive. Any videos that Grant, his wife, Nate, and Callie are in, will be kept. Any other person in those videos will be excluded.

There were quite a lot of problems during the tour, but in the end it was all worth it. But travelling on a bicycle isn't for everyone. It's physically and mentally hard. Also getting the needed gear costed me around 1600€. For me, it was all worth it, but I recommend firstly going for a smaller tour to find out if you actually like this way of travelling.

@@notthomasjoelI know it isn't for everyone, but I think I might enjoy it because I really like camping and exploring new places but walking around is extremely slow and exploring really random and unique places is harder to do by car/public transport. And I'll go on a few day trip with the stuff I already have these summer holidays, I'll just bike around Czechia (where I'm from:D) Also I know the gear isn't cheap, especially a good bike

The Czech Republic is a good place to start. If you notice that you like bicycle touring I'd recommend Hungary or Slovenia, as you don't need to worry about dogs and you can camp basically anywhere thoughtfree. Perfect for beginners in my opinion :)

@notthomasjoel9 ай бұрын
A lot of people are missing Nate and Callie and I get that completely, but I personally stopped watching after Grant's death because the style of the videos shifted from "let's make an Arc furnace" to "what happens if I put a piece of coal into freezer ". I would say that Nate returned to the old style of videos to a certain extent on his new ytb channel, but it just doesn't feel the same.
@darkaxel199110 ай бұрын
Grant always struck me as someone who succeeded in just about everything he did. It's a shame that success on KZbin meant chasing views, though, because it really killed the soul of the channel IMHO. To be clear, for me, the decline started before Nate was brought on board, and I could tell that Grant was burning out.

I can only speak for myself but I stopped watching when it went from “look at this cool thing, now I’m going to tell you how you can do it and why it happens that way” and changed to “smile, candy, improvised fidget toy!” To prove my point one of their most recent videos is titled “what is the most lickable surface in NYC” the video in question is a month old and hasn’t even hit 25k so while your prediction is that it will stop posting is close drawing (I’m posting on the 6th of jan) I think it safe to say your right while not officially “dead” it’s not going to come back from this, what a sad way to end grants legacy….

TKOR was one of the first channels I subscribed to and I even built a bunch of the devices he did (I haven't built the hydrogen generator yet, my previous neighbors would have called the cops on me). I didn't like it when Nate replaced Grant but he grew on me, and I loved the addition of Calli (I have a thing for redheads). but when they added Grace and the others I was afraid they were just chasing the algorithm and a lot of the experiments were just rehashing previous stuff. And when they fired Cali I got mad, when they fired Nate I got pissed. I unsubscribed that day, and I subscribed to Nate the moment I found out he had a channel, even though his content hasn't been great as of lately (he's currently doing "Will this cotton candy" or "What happens if I put this in a Vacuum or Liquid Nitrogen") but I can accept that knowing that Nate is one guy (or a really small team, I don't know) vs the large team TKOR had become. R.I.P. Grant, I will only remember the good times
