For me personally, I absolutely dread those "commentary" YouTubers who show 3 TikTok videos of some unnecessary internet drama and then proceed to regurgitate everything that was stated in order to "prove a point" but haven't actually done proper research about the situation. 


I hate hate hate hate HATE reaction channels. ESPECIALLY if that's all they do. I don't even care if the original creators are given credit, make something original! my god...

@Fusterz Exactly! its almost like nobody makes original content anymore and instead is just taking other people's content for "commentary" I know it's not illegal if they're using it for that purpose but some of us want to see original content, not mass produced garbage. 

I really hate those people who take a piece of news and make a video reacting about it in a very overly dramatic way. French YouTube space is flooded with this. It's usually the far-right who post these. I hate them because the content is usually the creator reading the news article in question and some posts on social media, there's no depth, no arguments, and it's usually very sexist/racist. Basically what OP said but political.

I dislike channels that focus on celebrities.

I dislike the majority of modern minecraft/roblox content. They are 99% of the time plagiarized content with no effort made solely for views. Also the creators have an annoying voice.

THOSE STUPID AI-MADE ANIME RECAP CHANNELS.

And like Fusterz said, reaction videos for the same reason I dislike minecraft/roblox content.

Basically I dislike soulless videos.

@amanoluna Nowadays people don't even try to put any effort into their content because they know that they will still amass a large following and get monetized for it. 

LOW EFFORT REACTION CHANNELS...i feel like it's a pretty lazy form of content creation when all theyre doing is watching someone elses video and saying some random shit afterwards that adds absolutely nothing before moving on to the next video. i dont think all reaction channels are lame tho but a large majority of them are....I also dislike drama channels that make multiple videos/updates on the same situation and just keep dragging it out like it gets to a point dude

sticktubers especially those where all they do is overexaggerate being high oh my godd 

I'm starting to dislike youtubers who make shorts of cute animal clips. It's usually made in a way just to farm views as it isn't unusual for some clips to show animals being hurt or sick and some being AI.

@Gray HEAVY on the ones who repost content of animals getting hurt. I don't think the reposters realize that this isn't some hilarious and entertaining animal video, that is a video showcasing an animal who has been severely neglected. 

The slop/commentary YouTubers 

Maybe MySpace was all the friends we made along the way.

Any of those reaction/commentary channels like layze, luisayy, chad-chad,  Danny Gonzalez , ect that aren't that funny and don't really say anything 😭 like they're okay, but sometimes they just feel mean. 

The tide is high (but I'm holding on)

@Sofiisnthere I really don't get how people watch them... (especially layze or whatever his name is)  or really any commentary YouTuber in general. A large majority of them pose as commentary when in reality all they're doing is showcasing three videos of a certain topic, then proceed to restate literally everything, literal dopebrains trying to make a dime off of other people's content. 

gaming youtubers that can't take anything seriously and are loud to be funny ☹️ so many gems getting ruined

ones that have barely any effort put in and don't really have any sort of passion, like sunnyv2 for example.

like some reaction channels can be ok if they actually add something to the video (like a skit or something after), but some of them are just kind of like... standing there... watching the video... and then after they don't really do anything except say something like 'woa that was insane guiz'.

then there's the low effort video essays (COUGH COUGH sunnyv2 COUGH COUGH). i'm not saying all youtubers who have reasearch teams or bigger budgets do this, there are some good ones who actually care. But GOOD GOD are some INSUFFERABLE and MONEY CHURNING.

shitty true crime videos. there's two types i really don't like but i'll put them together. the first is the ones that talk about true crime while doing makeup or eating food/mukbang, and talking about a case as if they're talking about the weather or their plans for the weekend. it comes off as really disrespectful and like they don't really care about the families of the victims, who are probably still alive mind you. it's just...no. the second is yapmaster-esque true crime videos (although not SPECIFICALLY pertaining to fandom). if you don't know who i'm talking about, yapmaster is a channel that does true crime videos on fandoms. which sounds vaguely interesting until you actually watch the videos. use of the word 'unalive' unironically when talking about real cases. blatant disrespectful covering of the cases he talks about. it's all there. and it gets worse as you go from older to newer videos and just see him treat the subjects with LESS and LESS respect. i watched his video on the loud house fandom and oh god... just no. no. the use of the word 'unalive' has no place in true crime videos. let me make that clear. but there's so many channels like him pumping out these videos daily and the audiences eat it up every time. sigh. such is life.

clout chasing channels solely covering a topic because it's popular. DTBB. i think that just explains the whole thing. ok but for those of you who don't know, DTBB was a relatively popular youtuber in the vocaloid fandom. and when i say he was a poser and a clout chaser, i mean it lol. like even as someone who used to watch his shorts they always seemed so hollow. always popular stuff. and then he got exposed as a groomer and he actually did other shitty things so i stopped watching him altogether. i wouldn't say darku fits here because he seemed actually kinda passionate but he was an AWFUL SHITTY GROOMER. god i remember watching his stuff before i found out and just dropping his stuff altogether. but anyways.

yeah that's it.

you galvanistic young inhuman, you understand...

Slime ranters or anyone who talks about "hot takes". Having hot takes is so overrated and irritating, just call it an opinion bro. Things shouldn't change in value just because they're uncommon or because they're common either; it feels forced to me.

@Toffee.moon "Hot take!" then proceeds to state something that many others have already said. 

@Ana either that or they say that "slavery wasn't that had and people are over-exagurating" (i actually did see that). The one i hate the most is when they complain about "content stealers" despite the fact the slime videos they use don't actually belong to them.

i think youtubers like https://www.youtube.com/@y4zhu and https://www.youtube.com/@Someone0789 are probably my least favourite kinds of youtuber imo

salt my dish bartender

Oh my flipping god I HATEE the YouTube slop content with that annoying high colored thumbnail and it's so freaking edited i can't even tell if it's ai or by actual edits. And don't get me started on the "Stickman" information YouTube channels. That's why I only watch small content creators or OGs

THOSE FREAKING REDPILLED PODCAST CHANNELS

I'm not quite sure what to call these, but those video essays that're always way too long, and take a game or anime or something and try to assign some political meaning to it, and the thumbnails and titles are always something like this (really, any youtuber that has thumbnails like this needs to be shot in the street imo)

I want to pick up this call.

@Black Market Stray Cat This is such an accurate depiction of a large majority of "commentary" YouTubers. Istg they love to abuse the bewildered face expression, big yellow text, and their main subject pictured behind them combo. 

Those AI generated list channels. 

Most of the time their info is inaccurate anyways 😒

@_Alien-Catz_ fr!! why give a robot a bottle of water to lie for you when you can stay hydrated and lie yourself? ^^ /silly

I have to go now. My planet needs me. :3

Commentary YouTubers for the most part give me the ick, espcially the type that @Black Market Stray Cat perfectly described and illustrated. Maybe, just maybe, not everything has a deeper political meaning.


I also dislike K-Tube (K-Pop YouTube) because the majority of videos are just an AI voice reading a script about some petty drama in the fandom. It's such low-effort content and adds absolutely nothing of importance.

People who unironically use the word “woke” to describe something they don’t like. 


I absolutely despise how they’ll take a mid piece of media and portray it as if it’s the antichrist.

Then once their channel is dying they’ll blame the audience for “making them make negative content” like come on bro 🫩

@Fren🌟Zi i think the worst part about that word is the people who unironically use it probably couldn't give you a definition of the word when asked; i think they just whip it out when they think something is eww stinky yucky icky

I have to go now. My planet needs me. :3

I've been really into 'whats in my bag?' videos and I REALLY dislike the ones that are quick and practically skip over the things they have. Like- SHOW ME WHAT YOU HAVE AND EXPLAIN IN GREAT DETAIL PLEASE !!! I just love when they explain in great detail as to why they have a specific item in there and/or how they got it. (。ᵕ ◞ _◟)

Damn, there’s so much to choose from.

Mainly, I think the Vtubers (on the English-speaking side—though the Spanish-speaking side is also a cesspool as far as I remember) have destroyed the image of the traditional Vtuber, or at least the Japanese concept of it. I mean, I’m seeing more and more controversies coming from that side, I hate the hypocrisy and the controversies—examples include the ChibiDoki case or the DemeVT case), reaction channels (those low-effort ones where they don’t even add extra information, comments, or anything to “spice up” the video), commentary channels (those that summarize an internet drama for the unemployed people just to deliver the most simplistic and obvious life lesson), AI channels, channels dedicated purely to YouTube Shorts (this ties into the AI channels, because the voice is always the most insipid and boring AI possible), Reddit stories (unverifiable and each one more full of lies than the last), low-effort channels (for example, gaming channels that basically just read the Wikipedia history of a game or series, or where their observations are nothing more than the obvious or superficial aspects of the product)

Low-effort summary channels, where they simply narrate step by step what the characters do—which isn’t a summary at all, but a narration—are terrible.

“Video essays”—which are just the author's self-indulgent attempt to justify themselves through a long video—are also video essays about concepts that I know they don't understand and that, on top of that, try to steer the viewer toward the interpretation of the person analyzing it (in other words, they already had a preconceived notion or opinion on the subject, they’re just rationalizing it) (examples of this include, I don’t know, the misinterpretation or semantic overloading of concepts like “incel,” which for some reason they use as an insult rather than for its intended purpose (to describe involuntary celibacy)).


I also agree with the user “BlackMarketStrayCat”—I hate those video essays.

I hate those video analyses that search for meaning or political interpretation that wasn’t there in the first place. Or how they force a political orientation or message onto things that don’t have one—I want to enjoy a product without worrying about or noticing how idiotic the creator or the people consuming it might be, but these analyses just don’t help me. (I mean, there are obvious cases—Fallout, BioShock, etc.—but there are works where, even if you twist your brain in every direction, you’d never reach the conclusions some lunatics come up with.)

Those mukbang channels… like, what’s even the point of watching someone eat all that food? I don’t get the appeal at all. It’s just really weird.


And I’m probably gonna get flamed for this, but I can’t stand V-tubers. Their annoying high pitched voices always get on my nerves (and thus I can’t watch them for too long), and I don’t like their over the top personalities. Many people find them endearing, but I’m not one of them. It’s just not for me.

Check it out, I’m in the house like carpet.
