Kind of a trend, the amount of youtubers who i had loved but their content became generic after gaining popularity is quite a bit, most drastic one being mrwhosetheboss, his uniqueness went down faster than MH27 MH17

      Negative information is still information. Knowing something isn’t worth the time/money can still be helpful.

      Disclaimer: didn’t watch the video in question

          After watching the video, I thought it was pretty solid. Only 1 of the 4 was mostly bad, the rest just had sharp edges that the viewer needed to be comfortable with before launching in.

          I’m not saying Linus isn’t guilty of clickbait and junk content to some degree, but this one felt good to me :)

            I like this one too and generally like the videos with Alex. Just because something doesn’t make practical sense to do doesn’t mean it’s not interesting.

      I’d disagree with the last statement as negative results may still be useful. But I didn’t watch the video, maybe it really was not worth being made
