Post the names of youtubers and other internet microcelebs you love with a burning passion based on more than vibes. Very preferably not large.
A good example is Cathode Ray Dude, who makes long videos on older technology. He doesn’t seem to have done anything reactionary, he’s got a personality far beyond “the algorithm”, and he doesn’t associate with any terrible people. And I enjoy his videos.
I like Cathode Ray Dude too, he’s a good talker who can make anything sound interesting and he has ”I hate capitalism and I’m not here to get sponsorships, I just want to share what I’m up to for your entertainment and education.” in his bio and that pride flag VHS case in the background of all his videos.
LGR makes similar content and at this point I appreciate every YouTube person who hasn’t turned into a chud, started making algorithm pandering content or both.
Clint (LGR) has been around for 19 years, and the quality has been consistently good across that time.
He made a video last year celebrating 15 years of LGR, so I guess he considers 2009 and the first videos labelled as LGR the time he really started on YouTube. I’ve been watching him pretty much since the beginning, when his channel was still technically called phreakindee, lol.
Yeah, his videos are still great, I’m glad he made it through the hurricane okay.
Those are all the same reasons I’ve been watching his stuff for years, and VWestlife even longer.
VWestlife even still makes most of his videos in like 480p with Windows Movie Maker and all in one take, he is incredibly true to how he wants to do things and I love that.
