  • I understand that but when it started it just felt like hanging out with a lovely family doing a cool thing, comforting and relaxing to watch. It changed pretty drastically over the last few months where it was no longer rewarding to watch. Full on advertising videos, pushy and irrelevant ads that were a huge chunk of the video, then they added patreeon which was one thing but then added the youtuve membership and continued to ask for items off their Amazon wishlist and merch. It changed from a family more of a business really quickly and it just made it really draining to watch anymore


  • I watched a channel called- Escape the dream restoring a French chateau. I watched it religiously for likr 5 plus years and it helped distract we through covid. Within the last year as they became more popular the ads and selling amped up so much that I couldnt stand watching anymore. Before it felt relaxing and fun to watch now it feels like they are always trying to make money off everything to the detriment of their actual content. Full videos that are only ads, lots of content locked behind patron and now also YouTube membership too and the obnoxious in video sponsorships


















  • Most recently, Yellowjackets and White Lotus. I watched the first 2 seasons of Yellowjackets because the premise was interesting, and I wanted to see what happened (how the rescue happened) but it turned into a hate watch for me by the end of the second season. It all felt pointless and super depressing with no moments of hope or levity at all. The introduction of random supernatural elements and magic felt like they were drifting into Lost territory, and I couldn’t force myself to watch the third season after that.

    White Lotus I tried rewatching because everyone seems to love it but I could never get past the first episode in the first season, everyone was so unlikeable and awful or totally ridiculous that I couldn’t stomach spending more time with them.
