    UA-cam has become a place where wealth and fame is all that matters, theres no more fun anymore, you won't get anywhere trying to have fun with it. If things had been different it may not of been entirely clear we were growing up as everything likely could of remained the same. However, to everyone retiring, they deserve it, they really earned it. It sucks we've been forced to basically realize we've grown up, but at the same time, we needed it. They still are around, to some degree, either here or elsewhere. Its not over entirely, and we shouldn't cry because its over, we should be happy and smile that it happened, and cherish those amazing memories and nostalgia for the rest of our lives, and being able to go back and reminisce. To all those retiring, thank you, you earned it man.

    Sometimes, it's better to just let things die when their time comes. It's sad, but all things HAVE to end. If they go beyond their time, if they continue struggling to keep going just for the sake of it, eventually things just won't be right anymore. Watching something you care for become unrecognizable over time is a far worse pain than losing it could ever be.

    From start to finish ive watched all of this UA-camrs, its sad to know that i won't be seeing them again,its also sad to know that im becoming older as time goes by, but hey it's probably because i thought that they won't retire even when im older.....so that i could sleep better at night i guess i should thank them, thank you Dan, thank you Matpat , thank you Tom thank you stampy and thanks to all the UA-camrs that are quiting, for a childhood that was fun and memorable...i will miss the times when i laugh at there videos

    Hearing "What's also important is you guys aren't kids anymore" from DanTDM made me cry a lot. And knowing that Matpat is leaving in 2 days from now, Stampy's gone, as my childhood continues to fade away.

    Doesn't matter how many times I watch MatPat's goodbye video, it always makes me cry. It's so sad to see him leave the channel, at least on screen, but at the same time, he's also starting a new chapter of his life.
    I'll miss him, and a lot of other UA-camrs. They made and brightened our childhood.

    Want to add Funhaus to that list, they made it almost 10 years as a channel and they were a big part of my 20's telling jokes that most other channels were afraid to. Stupid ones mostly, but some smart ones in there too. And all hilarious
    I will miss Matpat, Tom and Funhaus, and wish them all the best

  • @cellegen
    @cellegen Місяць тому +3

    I think I get how those people feel, who entertained children and adults respectively. Imagine being a children entertainer for over 10 years, only to realize your audience became adults. And the fact that the current generation's kids don't care about you shows that... it's better off ending it for the present, than continuing it for the future.
    - UA-camrs are losing their identity over time. Those UA-camrs who don't want it to end, have to resolve in bat sh*t insane action for the common audience, just to be relevant and get profit out of it, if there's any.
    - The platform worsens over time, allowing more harm and malice than more engagement and care for any community, ruining UA-camrs' way of living in the process and whoever decides changes at UA-cam won't do anything about it for a long time now. Be it ignorance or negligence, it's unacceptable and sometimes illegal, depending on context.
    - Kids are hooked onto UA-cam, despite the fact that it's the worst possible way to raise up a child, where their "TV Shows" are a bunch of uneducational and probably unethical videos made by unknown people on the internet, brainwashing their minds with content that they specify, because kids don't know any better for themselves and leaves scars for their mental states.
    - Shorts are the pinnacle of "grab whatever value you can and get out" vibe, if I ever seen one. Most people there who upload videos are not usually for engagement with their own community, but rather engagement with everyone and everything that brings views, likes and comments for their videos, making us (the viewer) literal money machines. Highly manipulative and brainwashing for all people. It can get addictive for some, if not most people on the internet to continuously scroll, watch and react to content with never ending content thrown at you.
    - The way to handle criticism on UA-cam is nothing short of manipulative this time around. UA-cam took away the dislike button because less than 5%~ of users complained about their videos getting bombarded and attacked with negative feedback and they went along with the request. UA-cam took away the 5 second skip button, because most of the time, people didn't care about those ads and all advertisers saw was less engagement towards ads, so they complained as they wanted to leave. You guessed it, they went along with the request.
    UA-cam took away the chance to produce content with any type of mild swearing, regardless of the CAPPA change where you directly specify, that it is targeted for adults, but the video itself gets restrictive, whenever a word (aimed for adult use) gets that video demonetized, age restricted or even taken down, all because UA-cam didn't want that change in the first place, thus they didn't care changing it.
    There are a bunch other issues with UA-cam which revealed itself overtime, and I think the way UA-camrs leave is nothing short of... expected.
    Even those who decided to live their lives for their community slowly decides to step away from UA-cam and move onto other social media platform permanently. We all see it, nobody is happy with this change, yet we don't get changes that we deserve.
    F*ck UA-cam.

      that would be another nice alternative ending though i just thought the tom scott quote was more relevant to the situation. i did include a "its just a theory" in the video though. its being overlapped by music and other voices, though, so you might've not caught it (its during the edit)

    • @chocolateblocks
      @chocolateblocks  10 місяців тому +6

      yeah read the description
      tom scott isn't exactly quitting, either. he's slowing things down and just not doing weekly uploads. mat pat is quitting in the sense he's not on screen anymore, but otherwise he's still a part of the youtube channel just not visible.
      stampy is just not doing minecraft videos anymore and slowing things down
      joel haver is switching to 12 feature films a year (1 per month) rather than one short film a week
      in a sense all of them are not exactly quitting but making a big change that results in them not making as many videos or changing their content significantly

    We can be better people, and I want them to be who they are and happy with what they're doing, and I want them to live their lives to the fullest, to be there for those they care about, and for us to let them do that and we take what they do as inspiration and apply it our own lives
    We should all find happiness in our lives

      yeah, he didn't, but many of the other youtubers considered to be quitting (e.g. tom scott) aren't exactly quitting. they're more so slowing down or moving to behind the scenes (mat pat). so yeah i just included him
