    I think his style of 'reaction' video blew up because it felt like people were just sitting and watching videos with him. Like watching a tv show with a friend. The problem in that though is that they weren't watching for him, they were watching the reuploaded content with him just kinda... being there.
    If you ask me though, ssniperwolfs repurposing of this style of content is way more annoying. At least jinx wasnt goin "wow!" or "so cool!" in an annoying voice every 5 seconds like a pokemon -_-

      Honestly, yeah. That's why I started watching him, at least. He actually didn't just sit in silence tho, at least not primarily. I know a LOT of his videos was him talking (IMO, non-stop), which ofc gained a lot of hot from the viewers, me being one of them.
      I mean, when I watched a reactionary vid back then, I just wanted to watch it with the YTers, maybe see if they'd react to [x] the same way I did, but ultimately, I still didn't want them to talk 24/7, lmao; just mainly stay quiet. He was definitely the type to fit that to a T, sometimes, unlike others now-a-days. They're so exhausting

They literally just grab any video, record a group of 7 vids within a 2hour span and leave and have the rest of the week off. They are getting paid for bearly anywork so we was talking cus im a youtuber with now 300k doing animations. They said you work too hard cus i work like 7 hours a day for the same results as them for 3 hours a week but i told them in the long run we will see. Im trying to build a brand... something i can see on Disney or something in 5 years... i told them they are thinking too small they just think about UA-cam also i think i will have more subs then them in 5 years i can literally be at like 8million tbh

    I feel like one of the reasons why Jinx eventually fell off is because of a technicality. What I meant was even back then, it's not weird seeing reactions "not showing any reaction" at all because at first, the purpose of a reaction was to watch something together. The same way Mukbang started because some people doesn't like eating alone and they want others to give company. It wasn't until more reaction channels appearing that suddenly there's a formula of a reaction video. And since he wasn't able to adopt it, doing the same thing over and over again, it's not surprising how you got bored of Jinx. Still, one of my OG favorites, William Mancini, was definitely how I found out about reaction channels. It is still sad to see him leave the scene early because it was around the time when the seeds of cancel culture began to appear.

    • @abdullahihassan7344

Content Cop and jacksfilms was already a lot but then big names like Ethan, Felix and meme creators had to join in as well (Mind you, some of them doesn't even hate Jinx. They only hated the formula of just watching something and giving your thoughts at the end of the video, even now, it's either people talked while the original video is playing or they paused the video to add some context, which to this day, some people still has problems with). It really falls apart because his so called 'reactions' doesn't show a lot of emotion. I mean, seriously, have you ever watch something so hilarious that you don't react at all?
      In fact, it just hits you after the second reaction? Felix and Jack were a few that did this sort of 'rewatch a few times' reactions. But of course, they're not reaction channels so it's not weird or anything.
      So that's it, Jinx CAN'T adapt to the new formula reaction, and even if he managed to, the damage has already been done. Dude has a personality, his catchphrase is his literal intro. But too many people jumped on the hate train.

      Well based on that stats we can also say that his subscribers didn't watch him because of his content but rather the content that he watched because none of those people watch them for who he is, for the content that he created himself.

  • @JCG95
    @JCG95 9 місяців тому +9

    It’s kind of ironic, hypocritical, and hilarious how Jinx was hated for doing reaction videos, when nowadays every single person on UA-cam does reaction videos now. To include PewDiePie who reacts to memes, Jacksfilms who occasionally does reaction videos and had beef with SSSniperWolf, and even collaborated with AzzyLand, KSI who watches Family Guy videos, people who stream on Twitch, and the list goes on. Jinx was way ahead of his time. I wasn’t a fan of him, but I can’t help but feel kind of bad for him. He was the first person to be popular to do reaction content, and of course everybody hated on him for what he was doing, when nowadays everybody does literally the same thing he did. Much like how Behind The Meme was hated for making meme content, since people thought he was ruining and killing memes, and nowadays everybody does meme content, Lessons in Meme Culture.
    I bet Jinx currently laughing his ass off, Though he probably does not care.

    • @ShadyDoorags
      @ShadyDoorags 4 місяці тому

      Reactions videos have been a thing on UA-cam for a while and many were fine with them. The problem people had with Jinx and similar content was that he didn't transform his work, making his content theft of the original creator. He was also very lazy in how he approached videos. Pewdiepie's videos have plenty of editing, turning them into a completely different and entertaining experience, and Jacksfilms reacts specifically with the intent to criticize lazy reactors and give proper credit to original creators. It's a parody and criticism of reaction content. Twitch streamers and creators like SSSniperWolf are indeed continuing the trend, but you'll be hard pressed to find UA-camrs defending the lazy ones. Many creators treat SSSniperWolf now in the same way creators treated Jinx back then.
      Jinx pretty much proved GradeAUnderA's point by trying to make original content and losing his entire audience by doing that. He wasn't good at making content. The subscribers came for the content he was taking from other people.

    NGL, it would be neat for you to do a video on papafeargaming/thefearraiser. he fell off brutally with 2 channels because he screwed over his workers and chasing trends like among us and FNF. I used to be one of his workers and helped expose his bad business practices with the help of Daftpina, who made 2 videos on him causing the downfall of his youtube channels.

      That’s crazy I used to watch him but just randomly stopped. He definitely should make a video on that.

    Jinx lowkey started the entire meta of UA-cam content now. Everyone does the same type of content he would do and he got so much hate for. He was honestly ahead of his time but he was a boring person to watch. He also wanted to start the YT boxing thing before anyone wanted to do it and now everyone loves the boxing content.

    Grade A talks about shit content, but was the same guy who’s videos primarily consisted of Microsoft paint stick figures with mutilated head shapes while screaming into his 50$ microphone, can’t believe I used to watch dude, that era of UA-cam was such a hypocritical point in time.

      Are you some mind of drooling toddler that only watches videos for moving things on the screen and judges it by how many flashing colours you can see? Grade put more thought and humour into one sentence of his videos than Jinx did in all his exercises in content theft combined. Probably one of the reasons UA-cam is just a cesspit nowadays is braindeads like you equating the price of a microphone to creative merit.

      That might be true, but At least Grade A was not stealing other people’s content like Jinx was. All Jinx did was play a video in its entirety to give off the illusion that his content had effort and sit there. He should have reacted to something like Family Guy Full episodes and see how long his channel would have stayed up.

    Jinx was ahead of his time. And UA-camrs back then didn’t understand it.
