Not watching that. Why are they killing off foodie channels?

>>9911895
No idea actually.

>>9911882
Jesus that guy's green screen bullshit gives you a seizure every 5 seconds

That backdrop is fucking cancer. Not watching this nonsense.

>>9911895
Actually, if you watched that, it would answer your question.

they're not. op is just trying to use reverse psychology to promote his youtube channel.

toutube demonitising their videos
it’s really hilarious watching daym complain about not making money off stuffing burgers into his face in his car anymore

>people legitimately thought they could just make youtube videos for a living, and this was a long term plan.

Hey look on the bright side, you've developed a good reputation with the local fast food restaurants, so you can probably get a job there now XD

kind of an interesting business model
>pay people to provide content
>now that you have a sufficient population who go to the site regardless you don't need to pay for content anymore

>>9912063
500 hundred hours of video is uploaded to YouTube every minute. Think about that. It’s simple economics. Advertisers don’t have an unlimited marketing budget, but the supply of video is infinite. If YouTube monetized every video equally it would devalue the ad space to the point that YouTube wouldn’t make anything selling it, so they artificially restrict the supply of videos advertisers can buy. The gold rush is over.

>content
>“Reviewing” fast food
Demonetizing these people is a good thing. I do feel bad for review brah though, they should reconsider.

>Demonetizing these people is a good thing. I do feel bad for review brah though, they should reconsider.

No they shouldn't.

Whipping out a gopro and telling your personal opinion on the latest trashburger from burger king is a hobby, not a career.

>the part where his daughter interrupts the video to tell him the story about how she died in minecraft

>>9912175

I agree but I think that ReportIfTheWeek is an exception. He’s elevated fast food reviews to a type of ongoing surreal performance art. I’d argue he’s much different than the typical slob guzzling fast food and barking into a camera.

I want reviewbrah videos for decades to come.

>>9912179

What about Steve's MREs? Did he ever monetize those vids?

>>9912145

Who the fuck got time for this kind of shit in their lives. I mean I waste a lot of time don't get me wrong but how am I going to waste 17 minutes just listening to one dude rant. Pack the gist of that shit into 3 minutes. Fuck, I've acquired practical/technical skills in videos that are like 2 minutes long.

>>9912448
jewtube was a mistake...

>>9912294
>Surely this will never dry up either!

Good on people making money but fuck if I'll ever understand why kids enjoy watching other people play video games. Is it just a friend simulator? It's so odd to me, like watching people watch TV or something

>>9912306
There was a purge.

>>9912464
It's a different business model, primary source of revenue are direct donation through viewers instead of depending on ad revenue.

>>9912464
>>9912485
Yeah but the question is why would you watch somebody else play a video game when you could be playing it yourself instead.

>>9912486
I do both at the same time.

>>9912486
I'm >>9912464

As I said I don't understand it at all but it's clearly been proven lucrative if you do itcorrectly .

>There are actually people willing to pay money to watch people play video games

You know you don't have to pay to watch right?

>>9912504
Yeah I know that. But still.

>There are actually people willing to pay money to watch people play video games

Incredible.

>>9912464
>Good on people making money but fuck if I'll ever understand why kids enjoy watching other people play video games
I do it sometimes but I agree it's not that entertaining. Really what makes it or breaks it is the streamer, if they're funny/amusing, not so much the game they're playing. But rarely do I just sit there and stare at it. I might play it in the background as I fold clothes or eat lunch.

But I've noticed kids (born after 2000 or so [actually there's probably a lot of them on 4chan now]) watch the most pointless shit on the internet in general. Videos with absolutely no substance and minimal entertainment value. They can sit there and just watch the shit for hours like it's TV.

>>9911882

Looks like Daym is going to have to get a real job.

So long as Emmy is safe and only the lazy, fat, obnoxious cunts (and the kid in the suit) who solely review fast food from their car are affected then I couldn't care less.

>>9912044
why is he crying there?

>>9913329
He just realized he is a spic.

>>9911895
to say it's "foodie" is just clickbait, it's the same problem with demonetization everyone on Youtube is dealing with
there are documented instances of Youtube demonetizing videos literally before they're completely uploaded

>>9913401
walked in to that one i guess

>>9912226
Steve only gets Patreon money iirc, so he's basically not affected

>tfw you missed the youtube bandwagon
>tfw you missed the cryptocurrency bandwagon
>tfw you're still a fat, poor, autistic NEET
Is there even any chance left for me?
>>9913329
It was a clickbait video to profit off the death of another YouTuber. He was absolutely fucking torn apart for monetizing the video.

>>9911895

Non paid reviews are not advertiser friendly

Companies don't want negative reviews of the hot garbage they're trying to sell

YouTube is pushing towards all product reviews of any kind being demonitized unless the companies behind them sponsor it.

This is happening in all different kinds of hobbies, not just food.

YouTube has completely shut down anything gun related too

Absolutely this. People get so upset and personally effected when you criticize one of these fucks.

If you can stomach it spend a few minutes browsing the reddit pages of any of these e-celebs, it's a fucking cesspit. I want normies to leave.

>>9911882
YOUTUBE IS NOT A JOB!!!

>>9912464
I like watching some speedruns, TAS, and things like that once in a while. Stuff I wouldn't normally be doing because they're actually doing something interesting. I couldn't ever get into watching someone play dozens/hundreds of game and scream for 10 minutes at a time.

>>9912412
Seriously. I've been waiting for the online ad bubble to burst. Maybe it's finally happening

>>9911882

Thank fucking christ BASED YOUTUBE PRAISE YOU

>>9914345
Yeah it was bound to happen eventually. A lot of people just started pumping out videos that had like 1 minute of content that they would artificially extend into a 10+ minute video because it got them more ad revenue. I wonder if a lot of people stopped watching stuff on YT like I did because of how often that happened. I'd start watching a video and realize it was one of those videos made just for ad revenue and close it. Obviously people are still watching them but it might be really young kids who don't know any better and don't actually buy anything.

>>9911882
>that cheesy child interaction

Nah Daym maybe your videos are just shit tbqh

>>9912464
>Good on people making money but fuck if I'll ever understand why kids enjoy watching other people play video games
Can't speak for everybody but here are my reasons.
>These people are very good at what they do.
I don't watch streamers who are lower than the top 1% of any game. If you cannot play the game at a professional level I do not watch you. I like seeing cool shit that they do and sometimes I even learn something so that if I play I can get better. I don't have the drive, talent or motivation to git gud. Watching tournaments is also acceptable.
>they are entertaining
The streamers I watch have chill laid back personalities and I don't think they are boring. I don't watch yellers or people who try and start drama. The whole e-celeb/IRL stream stuff is stupid. Even if they play the same game over and over again they still find ways to keep shit interesting.
>its low commitment and low stress
I can watch and leave anytime I want. it also serves as good background noise if i need it. I also know what i'm going to get when I watch a particular streamer so there is some comfort there. I don't want to gather people to play with if its a multiplayer game.
>chat
mindlessly spamming is an acquired taste but once you acquire it its fun.

I don't see the difference between watching people play video games and watching people play actual sports.

>>9912282
except we're here posting on /ck/ which is full of advertising threads that you have to filter out yourself if you don't want to see them

>>9911919

>>9915039
Yeah I shouldn't have said that, obviously kids usually get spending money for games, movies, fast food, and things like that. But there are ads for cars, trucks, beer, and other things that kids don't buy and if you get one of those ads on a video that mostly 13 year olds are going to watch then you've wasted your money for that ad.

does this mean jack’s channel will die too?

>>9916813
No because he uses his video as an advertisement for his sauces. Also I think he actually enjoys making his shitty videos and would continue to do so for free.

>>9915082
>500 hundred hours of video is uploaded to YouTube every minute. Think about that. It’s simple economics. Advertisers don’t have an unlimited marketing budget, but the supply of video is infinite.

Your argument is lost in the logic. What kind of contract would ever have advertisers spending an "unlimited marketing budget" in the first place? Companies figure out how much they need to spend to earn a customer, and then they budget an amount and spent it.

Of course different videos will be more or less effective than others, but that can all just be worked into the algorithm

Do you watch any sports? Have you ever watched sports? Basketball, baseball, football, racing, surfing, skating, skiing, rugby, soccer, or cricket? Do you know anyone who is a fan of a sport or a team?

Your question is stupid. It's the same thing as a person watching football or whatever; you are watching someone else play a game... But why do that?!? Why not play the game?!?

>>9920152
Because it's hard to get 10 people together to play a pickup game of baseball you literal autistic faggot.

>"Hey man, I love the food reviews but I need to be healthy for my family, so I'm done with fast food reviews"

Oh well then it can also be hard to get ten people together to play any game for any of the many reasons.

>>9912464
>>9912495
Pre-internet days, there was no shortage of of people who wanted to watch video games. If you'd ever been to the arcade, that one dude who was absolutely demolishing game xyz had a crowd of people around watching him - and remember that this is just a localized event not available to a wide audience!

Hell, I enjoyed watching my friends play games when I'd go over to their house. A lot of times, it's faster, easier, and a lower investment to watch someone who already knows what the fuck is going on in a game, rather than pick it up yourself, realize you suck at it, dump time and money into it, and get no enjoyment out of it. Especially now that I'm an adult, I just don't have the time for every latest game that comes out, but I still enjoy and am facinated by new games, and I like to get a slice of them every now and then. Watching other people who have the time or inclination to play these time wasters, SAVES ME A SHIT TON OF TIME AND MONEY to get roughly the same amount of enjoyment I would have gotten from playing myself, without all the hassle.

All that being said, I still have no clue why people donate money, I certainly never have.

>>9920161

>>9920174
Are you retarded? You are supporting my point. You do realize you have to be 18 to post here right?

>>9917363
Shoenice has been doing livestreams and pretty much begging for donations. He also claims he has stopped drinking.

Look at epic meal times's subscriber count, they are in the negative every day.

>>9920198
If shoenice isn't killing himself by slamming fifths, I have zero interest.

>>9920182
What do you think your "point" is? I don't think you have a point. It's already been stated it is hard to get yourself and also ten other people to play a game of anything, so watching people play games fills an entertainment capacity for people.

Again, what do you "think" your point is? Because it seems like you don't have one.

>>9920143
what kinda retarded brain do you have?

you can still watch reviews on shit but random people making a review don't deserve to make money off their video regardless of a positive or negative

>youtube shutting down that

All they're doing is removing ads on certain videos which is perfectly fine because it all lies within the choice of the advertisers. This whole "ad-pocalypse" bullshit only effects people who try to make YouTube their fulltime job. If you really think doubling down and making Youtube videos as a full time job is or was a good idea you're a complete fucking fool. No one is being shut down or censored, you need to get a real job and contribute to society likt a normal person you fucking swine, making youtube videos should be a hobby not a job.

What will happen to the competitive eaters?

>It's the same thing as a person watching football or whatever

Were probably not going to be ever agree on this because to me this is just obviously not true . I love hockey but I wouldn't ever dit down and watch someone play NHL 18.

Most people here are saying its dependant on the streamer to make it entertaining. I doubt many people would watch gameplay footage with no streamer/commentary. There's a social engagement aspect to it. Saying its the same as someone watching a football game is pretty dumb.

Also I'll never play in the NFL, anyone can play whatever game in question any time.

>>9920587
>>9920096

>>9922434
Absolutely based. How does he do it lads?

>>9922397
would people watch a football game without a streamer/commentary?
>anyone can play whatever game in question any time.
thats not the issue. most people are capable of playing football but very few will make it to the NFL. the same can be said for videogames. inb4 you just have to try harder.

>>9922512
People watch sports without commentary all the time unless you really want to equivocate play by play calling to playing Minecraft for three hours and having "funny" comments.

Comparing video game streamers to professional sports is just stupid. It seems closer to podcasts or MST3K orsomething . People should do whatever they want though.

>>9913407
Patreon is the best way to go. Its better than having those drawn out videos.

>WE'RE BEING SHUT DOWN!!
No, they're just no longer be paid ad money. They can still continue to make videos and get hundreds of dollars worth of free Youtube storage, except they just won't get paid anymore.

Reminds me of a scene in the movie Signs
>Who wrote this book?
>A scientist who had been persecuted for their beliefs.
>That means they're unemployed.
Same shit applies here. They'll come up with a million reasons and conspiracies on why Youtube is "censoring" them or is out to get them, all the while they refuse to accept the reality of the situation.
Good luck applying for a job with a huge gap containing "Youtube Content Creator."
Honestly, what the fuck were so many of these Youtube channels thinking? Making videos for a living isn't stable in the least bit.
Hilarious how their subscriber yes-men always jump to their defense by saying shit like "Y-youtube is d-destroying itself!" when Youtube is actually growing bigger than ever.

Anyways, their tears are delicious.

10 years ago I remember this happening on Google search results where every algorithm update you would see hundreds of people's income sources go away. Now its happening with YouTube also.. This is what happens when a giant powerful platform is build on the backs of naive and innocent people trying to make a living.

Proctor & Gamble has been reducing it's youtube ad budget because they found it to be largely unproductive. They pulled all ads a couple years ago because they were put together with ISIS, taliban, and neo-nazi crap. When they checked, they found no reduction of sales revenues because of it. They have since returned to a certain extent, but it's much more closely monitered and targeted, and they spend much less money than before. Overall ,it's been found that youtube isn't the wonderful ad space they thought it was. Just a bunch of NEETS and GEEKS in their mama's basement.

If you're watching a speedrun or TAS, it's always fun to see the game get utterly broken in a way you could never imagine. They also talk in depth about how the game works and other entertaining tidbits. It's far more indepth than lets plays.

It would be like watching a guy in an eating contest who eats specific chemicals together that disintegrate food in his stomach so he can eat more, without it being considered steroids. just a fun thing to see.

Good. YT is full of shit with misleading clickbait images and 30-second videos with 15 minutes of padding.

I'm not even a massive YT fan but yesterday I looked up a clip of Chinese tourists acting like fucking chimps at a seafood buffet and was presented a 17 minute video by two Wongs analysing the clip. The clip itself was maybe 25 seconds.

I also clicked on a headline that said 'fight leads to assault with a deadly weapon', guess what? The ADW was just a nigger flashing a pistol in their waistband when confronted by an angry garage owner with a jack-handle. Like, what the fuck?

Just like on /ck/, 90-95% of food-related posts on YT are spam, filler, shitposting or just plain fat useless cunts padding out the space between ramming down junk food and breathing heavily from the effort.

Yeah, it's mostly watching people playing shit depending on how amusing you find them.

>>9924144

This is a big problem, the people who fall for this stuff and regularly watch those kind of videos probably aren't going to be affected by ads because they won't pay attention, and other people just stop watching altogether
