WHY are so many YOUTUBERS QUITTING ?

[@TimFromWales]

I'm having a rant. I might calm down and record a more measured version of this "rant" later in the week, but this is how I feel right now. I've seen a bunch of KZbinrs "quit" in the last year only to come back. They don't mean it. Just say you're taking a break, but don't say you are quitting and then don't quit. Its dishonest frankly... I think this is a new TREND to be honest..

You really are putting up the facts. You earned a sub from me

[@TimFromWales]

Hey thanks. So you agree?

[@Relaxico100]

@@TimFromWales Yes big time agree

I do like a good middle aged rant 😉

I could become my “thing” Rafe 😂

I watch more KZbin than Netflix or anything to be honest and I get sucked down rabbit holes and go through stages of watching many different genres and niches. I love it and I am constantly amazed by it. Right now you want believe home many people seem to watch videos about notebooks and journaling. I’m one of them, I’m fascinated by it… but “ultimate notebook and pen combo” “this notebook will change your life” videos are a bit tiresome…. Stand by for mine 😂😂😂😂

Many channels form with good intentions but they naturally become accustomed to that income stream & the bigger they get the more they deviate from their from their original intentions.

[@TimFromWales]

I get that and appreciate that / my issue is why they say they are quitting but they are not.

[@Northstar-Media]

@TimFromWales You want the simple answer to get views to spike the algorithm & keep the ad revenue coming in . My point being they will do anything to keep the revenue stream coming in & their opinions that they held so dear become secondary

[@TimFromWales]

@@Northstar-Media we don’t disagree and this is exactly the point I made in the video.

[@readikus]

Love the rant. But this is the second video I've seen that's saying the same, and I've not seen any of the videos where people are leaving. Would love some clues where to look for a quick laugh.

[@TimFromWales]

I’ve put some in the description. Matti Happoja is the one who really annoyed me, but Tom Scott actually said he will continue to make videos. Just google “I’m leaving KZbin”

[@readikus]

Oh! Was wondering if it was mountain bikers, rather than run of the mill narcissists. Phew :) @@TimFromWales

[@TimFromWales]

@@readikus LOL nope just run of the mill narcissists.

[@stevent1565]

Who are the famous ones tht are quiting?

[@TimFromWales]

Just Google - why I’m quitting youtube and judge for yourself

[@PiglipsMaximus]

Quitting does make more views happen. People in their fake ways pour out love and support blah blah. Views skyrocket.

[@TimFromWales]

Narcissistic click bait.
