Listen I love watcher. Maybe Moreso than dropout but I need them to understand something.
They do not have the lasting power that college humor does/did.
Dropout/CH was its own thing outside of Buzzfeed for a while! There fanbase can afford it because they have a WIDER (and older!) fanbase. They also still post the pay walled videos just MONTHS later. Also the amount of UNPAYED content they have is still INCREDIBLY generous. Not just the first eps of things we have entire series.
Not to mention their wider variety of content and GENUINE NEED to have a larger budget for the content they make. Watcher content is good but the only show that would require extra funds is "ghost hunting" but they could save costs by going back to the buzzfeed "Yellow and Blue Text." We liked it then, we'll take it now.
Watcher had a healthy community and a great flow of cash. This new paywall is gonna fuck them tremendously. They aren't as important to people as they seem to think and thats sad! Again I LOVE their content but I dont have 6 bucks a month. I barely have 6 bucks NOW.
Everyone makes a bad financial decision every once and a while though. Lol whatever.

yaaaay ty watcher :) /s
Watcher is not removing their backlog of videos from YouTube. What is there will remain. source:
However, according to Bergara, Watcher is not fully exiting YouTube: It will still keep its backlog of videos on YouTube, and going forward will put the first episodes of new seasons on YouTube — while the full new seasons will be exclusively available on the Watcher streamer.

Oof imagine hyping up this big announcement all week only for everyone to react by saying it's the worst idea ever. A swing and a miss, my guys.

they had so many ways they could have done it too like a free website with ads or SOMETHING
like watcher, my beloved, this was the single worst decision that you could have made
We all understand wanting to leave YouTube. The issue here is, instead of just getting their own website and shifting the content, they are going full throttle on making their fans pay for every single aspect- including content they’d already been given for free, over multiple years.
Plenty of content creators have had their own content sites over the years, with free content and then content specifically for their paid tiers. Not unlike Patreon but everything in the same place. So that fans could enjoy their content, especially videos they’re already viewed and enjoyed for free, but they are getting their freedom and their subscriptions.
It’s a strictly business decision and that’s fine. I just hope they’re prepared for how many regular viewers they’re going to lose because people can’t afford this, or straight up just aren’t willing to pay for something they used to get to free.

Do you guys also love it when you watch a youtube show for about a decade and then they decide to put it behind the paywall? And you can’t even pay for the subscription not only because it’s expensive and you’re already subscribed to plenty of other services BUT because you PHYSICALLY CAN NOT pay for a subscription of a service from a different country
Great, that’s exactly what we all wanted and needed 👍

I'm absolutely sure it was Lily who proposed to James first!
And James may have a golden ring with a brilliant emerald hidden in his sock drawer.
For @mppmaraudergirl "all alight with happiness" week.
