    Meidas Touch. Clickbait headlines and thumbnails, unrealistically optimistic takes on things. I want information, not bullshit.

    VSauce, all three of them. They were peak YouTube way back when, but there was this long pause in videos shortly after they built their big studio, and VSauce 1 started focusing entirely on shorts about uninteresting things and VSauce 3 stopped making videos entirely. 1 and 2 are kinda back at making videos, but their quality jumped off a cliff. Feels like they’re making videos out of obligation.

    MxR Mods. Two reasons for this, firstly is that I kinda stopped playing Skyrim. The other being that he started focusing almost entirely on lewd mods.

    Kurtzhezacht, because their political stance became more and more apparent (billionaires will save the future).

    No mentions of MKBHD. Guy had decent reviews of tech stuff, but decides to be a corporative, carfluencing, reckless driving sellout.

    i dropped Mark Roper when he said he loves his Tesla and plans on buying another. I just can’t deal with Nazi fanboys.

    Renaissance Periodation. He kept suggesting to his viewers that we should check his facts against Chatgpt. His sex jokes got boring and repetitive.

    Mostly, i drop a youtuber when i get bored with their content.

    Kurzgesagt: their video some time ago about current state of the world in terms of conflicts and violent deaths was disgusting. It was an apology to do nothing about the genocides occurring in the tone of “OH these things always have happened don’t be sad :))”

    I block any channel as soon as AI slop creeps into their visuals or their scripts. Sometimes I’ll do it even if they use AI slop in their thumbnails. I’m just sick to death of AI slop. Fucking HATE the aesthetics of it.

    Techmoan. I used to be super into his content on old obscure stuff but it fell off a cliff for me a couple years ago. Instantly bored.

    AvE when he started getting right wing preachy. Guy had a winning formula and destroyed it.

    Electroboom. Similar to techmoan… Booooooring. I don’t care about the outlets in whatever country you are visiting this month.

    John Oliver. It’s too depressing to find out what levels of depravity and corruption the ruling class is up to. I can’t handle it anymore.

    Marquez Brownlee. I lost trust in his sincerity and in his personal life he’s an asshole with multiple speeding offenses.

    Unbox therapy. Infomercials. The whole influencer thing does not influence me.

    CinemaSins - it just became cringe

    Good Mythical Morning - too ‘producrd’ and they started doing gross shit

    Mysterious Universe (YouTube and podcast) - They became rightwing antivax, anti-abortion, anti-mask, homophobic, transphobic, racist losers over the course of 2 years after COVID.

    Surprised it has shown up here already but Bon Appetit. I was watching a lot of it over lockdown in 2020, and then at the end of that year the channel blew up thanks to a mass staff exodus due to discrimination.

    I used enjoy the critical drinker. But his videos got anti-woke instead of just being critical of bad writing.

    The last straw was him on a podcast agreeing with right wingers/maga/fascists.

    I blocked him since then. Not sure if he was always like that or just fell down a dark rabbit hole.
