There's something inherently funny about Watcher out-trending Yuri on Ice. It's the embodiment of this meme to me:

Shoma uploaded a member video to his YT 18/05/2024!

He'll really revived this channel 🥹

in other news, not happy about watcher content now being behind a paywall :/. i'll probably never watch an episode of watcher content again bc i simply don't think i can pay for another subscription service rn

VIAGRA COMMERCIAL

Am i missing something or is the whole “scent bird” ad you see all the time with YTers just like, really wasteful? It sounds like SO much waste for these disposable scents? How much packaging and shipping and gas and electricity went to making something that kinda smells a certain way and is going to be replaced in 30 days?

how to watch an entire channel in a month

Hi I recently got into d20 and I'm almost done w/ fantasy high s1 on yt. I wanted to watch the rest of fh and the other series so I was wondering if it was worth it to get a dropouttv subscription ($5.99/month) or if I should just get a youtube membership to colleghumor ($4.99/month) instead? You're one of the few people who watch d20 that I follow so I was hoping for some help!

hi anon!! thanks so much for asking <3 if i'm honest i didn't know collegehumor had a youtube membership lmao, i've have a dropout subscription for like two and a half years now, and i really like it- there's a huge backlog of old college humor shows and sketches, as well as like. a cumulative thirteen or so dimension 20 seasons all available to watch, and the associated talk back shows and behind the scenes content for a lot of the d20 seasons; i don't have a membership to CH via youtube, so i can't say what they have available on that specifically as compared to their personal streaming service- but i do know that everything IS available without ads on dropout itself, which is worthwhile to me as someone who watches not only a lot of d20, but really loves a lot of the other shows dropout has produced/ is producing! they're currently coming out with quite a few shows outside of dimension 20, a lot of which do also include cast members from d20 and/or college humor at large !! i'm sure that a lot of these shows are likely also available on their youtube via membership (and some, like um actually and early breaking news seasons and some of the game changer episodes are available NOT behind a pay wall on the dropout yt right now, if you want to check them out before subscribing!) but again, i can't say specifically what parts of the catalogue at large are/aren't available to watch with a youtube membership as compared to a dropout sub

tldr: you can probably watch most of what you're looking for with either membership, and you might be able to find more information about availability on the dropout website or on their youtube, but if d20 is something you're interested and invested in, i highly recommend subscribing to dropout!! i really enjoy it, and there's a really big catalogue of new and old shows beyond d20 to watch, so you're not paying 6$ a month for ONLY d20 if you don't want to; and of course you can always binge watch everything you want to and cancel your sub after a month or two, if it ends up not being what you're looking for !!

hope this helped <3

didn’t expect that pekora buying a monkey would be how i’d end up canceling my membership of her channel

ah cute design

Also I think my yt stream has caught up with everyone else :) hi impacters hiiiiii

Ways that the QSMP could be funded without breaking Quackity’s bank:

Patreon: opening a qsmp patreon with different rewards (admin pov streams, exclusive merch, behind the scenes, HD quality of the art used on the server) might be the easiest way to get funds for the server, and it does not need to use q’s money to start (the qsmp yt channel memberships can also work like this)

Constant Merch: we have been asking for merch since the brazilians arrived and the translator was added as we have always known that it is a very expensive investment. egg merch is the most obvious way as they are perfect marketable plushies but also cucurucho and now the bunnies are amazing for a variety of things (plushies, keychains, stickers). the only bad thing about this is that q would have to pay for the initial drop.

Sponsorships: i think i have never seen quackity do a sponsored stream like… ever. the closest sponsor i see happening would of course be duolingo as a lot of qsmp members have been doing duolingo ON stream ever since the server started (and even before in foosh’s case)

Joining an Org: i see this one as the very last ditch effort but joining an org like offlinetv would help q with the server’s finances

i love the qsmp and i would hate seeing the project end because quackity decided to pay the admins after someone shit face admin decided to go on a power trip

"people are mad that that artists wanted to be paid" no, people are mad that they HAD places of revenue they could have invested in and instead decided to fuck everyone over and piss off their fans who have been there since the buzzfeed days

(+ the only reason they're now saying they're not pulling content is BECAUSE of the backlash, and this isn't even going into how any growth is now impossible if it's their own platform, they are NOT big enough or produce enough content for this)

like, apparently they have a patreon? have never heard of it. absolutely no advertisement on it, when PLENTY of people would subscribe if they plugged it at ALL (like, fans love bts content, early episodes, extra/uncut stuff, having their names be credited at the end, a discord, etc) but I've never heard of it, and according to people who have subscribed, they didn't find it worth their money (not an ideal baseline for their own service)

they have merch? make more and better quality/nicer designs (or just fun quotes! so much of my stuff from their buzzfeed days is just shane quotes, but the only stuff I've bought from them now is their jackets and the professor doll, nothing else. I've looked at their catalog, it's ugly. put a funny quote on a shirt and I'll buy it guys, it's not that hard)

a youtube membership for similar stuff to the patreon, yt livestreams, USE THE PLATFORM YOURE ON MAYBE???

explicitly asking fans to turn off adblock for them on their videos

but, like, I am absolutely not paying $60 just for like 1-2 shows that only get like 4 episodes a year. they do NOT have the content for this on their own (and why tf do they have 25+ employees???? bro what) - not to mention, the inaccessibility the new platform and ability for non US based fans to even subscribe

people watch bc of the dynamic between Shane and Ryan, some of my favorite episodes are ones where we get the random text on screen- nothing fancy

tbh I get what they want but it's been my opinion that too much of their stuff that I watch has become a) formuliac and b) overproduced without much to show (imo mystery files comes to mind, it's Fine but I only enjoyed the banter vs all the unnecessary visuals, the same with ghost files)

I've seen people mention how expensive just the ghost hunting stuff is, and like yeah, maybe stop buying that big fancy brandname equipment without and instead ask for sponsors to advertise your stuff, all that stuff is nonsense anyway so it's not like you're lying about like betterhelp or something

and idk, maybe having a show where you apparently eat gold and caviar isn't the best if you're struggling with money (esp bc who watches it? not me)

what they need is someone who actually knows anything as their ceo, having less than half the staff they do, and investing in the avenues they already have with SOME pay walled content (not all), and maybe learn how to actually produce their shows without bleeding themselves dry bc the fans watch for THEM not the "production value"
