     Zoomers will watch guys like xQc react to paint drying and this is somehow worth a $100+ million contract with Kick. The content grift economy is more baffling than the systemic failures of the financial system that occured during the Subprime Mortgage Crisis.

     @Hoss @RustyCrab @FrailLeaf There's a whole generation who grew up on the worst of youtube and Twitch garbage
     
     I really don't understand these react channels, it's fake, they're forcing it, I don't want to hear their worthless commentary. It's crazy that some people somehow live on the autoplay button, I can't just watch anything that comes up
     
     Channel like someordinarygamers are pretty boring, sometimes they come up with something interesting enough, but it's usually filler videos full of fillers in the first place so they get tiring quick

     @coolboymew @FrailLeaf @Hoss even with otherwise interesting topics this guy in particular manages to make it sound pretty dull with the way he talks. I really do think a lot of it is just getting lucky with the algorithm and then people get used to hearing your voice as background noise.

     @coolboymew@shitposter.club @Hoss@shitpost.cloud @RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co @FrailLeaf@ryona.agency I can't in good faith defend some of the $ numbers that are going around for these folks. But most of them put in stupid long hours and even if it's "just playing video games on camera" that has to be exhausting. I habitually watched toxic kiwi quinn for the better part of a year or 2 while i was fun-employed. And i don't envy his job at all.
     
     I think the monetization and drama incentivization around the whole scene is distasteful, but until the numbers get brought back down to earth, it's gonna be around for awhile.

     @coolboymew @Hoss @FrailLeaf @RustyCrab Many of them are sponsored by various "media groups" and it's clear their success is not organic

     Maker Studios was basically just Disney wearing a mask.
