You're probably talking about Electroboom, but also check out StyroPyro. Especially now, guy needs the views, he's going through some serious medical issues. Probably my favorite YouTube channel that exists.

Most beauty "influencers"

I watched them before they were "influencers", and then I couldn't trust the products they were using or recommending.

Contrapoints and PhilosophyTube were two big ones. I'd still watch Carlos Maza if he produced anything, but he hasn't in like two years, so...I'll include him, too.

Care to share why you stopped watching their channels? Because without context, the only potential reason that comes to mind is that they're both trans women...

Dr. Disrespect, there was a couple year period where the insane, over-the-top masculinity shtick was entertaining to me. Eventually I drifted away from the games that brought me to him in the first place.

Very recently, news broke that he had sexually explicit conversations with a minor on twitch.

All of them.

I get really close to pressing the button for anyone who is talking of anti-corporate speech or pro-privacy then goes into joining their Discord chatroom to slap you in face with hypocrisy.

Tobuscus was goat but then he got accused of something by his ex or whatever, never cared much about it, but he disappeared and now he just writes books or something. He was one of the old school GOATs next to MatPat, Markiplier, ERB. Sadly missed.

Two Best Friends Play / Super Best Friends. Because some of them stopped being best friends and only pushed forward through a professional working relationship until even that became too strained for them to continue. 😥

All gaming YouTubers, except for Byze. I can’t stand screaming every 5 seconds for no reason anymore. I’m getting old

@zachimusprime44

Crazy-Russian-Hacker was one of the first ones I saw. I remember one of the first things I searched on YouTube or the internet was "science experiments" and he had some pretty interesting ones back then. Later though he went on doing product and MRE reviews then I stopped watching him after a while.

We used to watch a lot of game theory. Really enjoyed the over analysis. Stopped part way down the 5 nights at Freddie's rabbit hole when all the drama started.

Upisnotjump. It's just not my thing anymore

[-] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 9 points 4 months ago

Mrwhosetheboss. Dude seems like he sniffs a line before every video. I'll probably need to watch one of his videos right now to explain more reasons but it's just not something I would like to watch now.

Day9. Though I just rewatched a funday Monday from episode 200 or 300 and it was just as amazing and fun as it was back over a decade ago.

I watched newer stuff he still seems to be a great guy.

Used to religiously watch a guy that played the same video game I was into. He was incredibly good at it, well-known in the game's community, did how-to guides, build guides, super nice, just wanted everyone to have a good time, wanted everyone to excel in the game, good-natured, just an all-around awesome dude, etc.

Then I dunno wtf happened, but 9 years later he's become a total fucking elitist asshole who does nothing but complain about the game and the gaming studio, doesn't seem to give a shit about the little guy just trying to learn the game anymore, it's like he did a 180 in personality and now has a "git gud" mentality. He made a video of him declaring that he was leaving the game, and he did, for like a month, then promptly returned once his viewership clearly went down. I unsubscribed at that point. He became a total whinebox bitch and I lost all respect for him.

Forgotten Weapons: Used to have videos on very cool old guns with interesting historical backgrounds and whatever. Then he made a series of selfish decisions that demonstrated what kind of person he really was, and I no longer had any interest in even helping him through the algorithm.

Stephen Hawes

He made really cool electronics projects and I used to be his patreon. Now he started a company that makes pick and place machines and all of his videos are exclusively about that. No more cool projects.

Alexandre Chappel

He is a very good maker and designer. He used to make videos about different interesting projects until he bought an apartment and started renovating it himself. Similarly to Stephen's, all of his videos are about that now. No more interesting projects.
