#goodbye youtube

It’s so sad that the ghoul boys died on a ghost hunt, from ghosts

And that’s why they won’t post YouTube videos anymore, because they are dead, from ghost hunting ):

One year later, I’ve realized that Watcher’s “Goodbye YouTube” is practically the exact same as Channel Awesome’s “Demo Reel. In the way that they took years of fandom and goodwill and threw it in the bin, all in service of some wild idea they had. An idea they never once actually focus grouped or thought out that well, as far as ramifications go. And then act all surprised when people understandably hate what they did.

So I have made this blog to just talk about whatever, but the specific reason is so I can talk about the whole watcher entertainment thing that is happening.

I am not a person that cries when it comes to shows or content or people I don’t know personally, but watching the “goodbye YouTube” video made me cry, curl up in a ball on the floor of my room and listen to sad songs for about 2 hours at 2am.

I did not cry because it was heartfelt, but because it was heartbreaking

These two random men (and Steven I suppose) that I have never met but nonetheless have been apart of my life for years now are making it so that I can no longer watch them without forking out money that I do not have.

I am not from America, I do not use USD, which means the price is not $6, it is more than that and I cannot afford it.

Watcher, Please reconsider or compromise, please, I do not want to loose the channel that I watched when I was lonely and lived long distance from my friends, the show that helped me through the lonely moments because I could watch these two best friends goof around in a haunted location.

A Summary of Cancel Culture:

(Nice to know that even if you apologize and become a better person the internet will still cancel you....)

alright genuinely. no one ever try to claim that people boycotting youtube or trying to fuck over google "hate small businesses and want creators to starve." Dan and Phil aren't even putting merchandise videos on their channel anymore. Pretty soon, it could be ALL patreon.

We are not evil or malicious for reading the writing on the wall and trying to get our favorite creators onto other platforms. My bad that I don't want my bandom video essayist to get copyright stricken and demonetized for showing a photo of Pete Wentz anymore.
