So, the motivation for this pol was these 2 Videos by Folding Ideas/Dan Olson about his Amazon Gameshow "Beast Games", which apparently is exactly the type of dumpster fire you expect. Mr Beast makes offensively shallow overproduced YouTube content and combining this with TV scale productions turns out absurdly bad. It's still shallow, but at the same time it lacks all the professional design and economics of TV productions. https://youtu.be/0dwagg5wYY4 https://youtu.be/2ubYGdMCQTA

@mxk@hachyderm.io oops clicked the wrong thing in the poll. As a person with kids watching YT, yes I know MrBeast. But what he really does besides what he apparently does: No.

@mxk@hachyderm.io ich kann weder mit ja noch mit nein antworten. Ich weiß, dass er ein bekannter Youtuber ist, aber was er macht weiß ich nicht

@mxk@hachyderm.io @raimue@hachyderm.io he is jimmy, and he smiles. A bit like Kenneth the Page, but with the brain of Jack Donaghy.

@mxk@hachyderm.io I know he does YouTube videos, is that enough for "yes"? Is he the guy with the drama about him promising random people on the street money and not fulfilling that promise after they did what he asked them to do? (I have some vague memory about one of my younger siblings talking about something like that)

@mxk@hachyderm.io Only because Dan Olson made a video about him.
