i feel like commentary youtube has a subsect of videos that come down to 'this could have been a tumblr vent post'

#i have thoughts on commentarytube in general. it's my guilty pleasure but also i take it with SUCH a grain of salt #so i'm going to make a tumblr vent post about it instead of a commentary video about commentarytube skdjskjdsk #i feel like it's a place for opinionated people to act like their opinions are fact a lot of the time #bc like. if they have a platform then SURELY they know what they're talking about. right? /sarcastic #i feel like the best ones are the ones with a niche they really care about #and not just 'let me spectate whatever gets me clicks this week' #like. i enjoy isabella lanter's commentary. she talks about scams and mlms and you can tell she cares about the topic #and is well-versed in it #and she stays in her niche and stays in what she knows well. and i think her videos really benefit from her obvious love of the topic #or treacle tatts. she is obviously very well-versed in her niche!!!! #not to say people can't branch out but i think when you branch out for the algorithm's sake your vid quality suffers from it #but i'm not a youtuber and they need a paycheck too and the algorithm is god on yt. so. shrug. #mildly salty opinion hour over. using my one discourse take of the month early here. see yall in june lmao
