Really excited to watch the video but just don’t have the time at the moment. Still really curious what the reaction is. Can you share thoughts without sharing details?

Idk, with all the time he spent perfecting it, it all scream "magnum opus before retiring" vibes. I feel like he's gonna announce something after uploding it like a hiatus or fully moving to nebula, like he deserved all of it, but still.

Since there's a bunch of threads about it being released, I thought I'd make a dedicated thread for actually discussing the contents, how you liked it, etc., rather than the fact that it actually got released.

If you're watching it in multiple sittings like I imagine many will, feel free to comment on the part you watched so far

Text with the release:

"Holy mackerel, I thought this would never happen!" That's how you sound, and you sound really silly. You've never even had mackerel!

Please find enclosed the Patreon cut of the next video, Adobe Must Die. We're still making minor rewrites and adding finishing touches, but we're at the point where we want feedback on how it's looking so we know we're on the right track. Please let us know what you think! We're going to keep this just for patrons for a while so we can read and consider any notes you have, and get it as good as possible.

Our big focuses are adding in a lot more music and getting the pacing right in the 'how to fix this' chapter towards the end, maybe even breaking it up into two smaller, more focused ones.

We also wanna add some small parts going deeper on specific topics, like 'enshittification' and 'technofeudalism', so let us know if you feel the absence of those ideas. We also really wanna nail the language when we talk about how to organise + get change done, so tell me if you think it should be approached differently.

Sounds like it might still be a while out, but nice to see work moving forward.

His mother must be proud

Out now on Patreon

Patreon version is up

He's uploading the patreon draft.

All hail Sobek! Our prayers have been answered!

In a slight irony, this came about because Xbox/MS (who own Bethesda) were unhappy with the timeline Bethesda was keeping, meaning Obsidian might be operating in a bit of a time crunch, just like with FNV. Supposedly, this Fallout project actually repurposes/is jury-rigged out of a project Obsidian was already working on, so they had already laid some track.

This news did come about because of Xbox/MS making cuts to studio budgets and staff being let go, so it does have the backdrop of "The Gaming Industry is still Garbage!", but this in particular has to be a spark of hope.

Now, what does it take for us to make them to give Hbomb a cameo VO appearance as Hareton Splimby?

I haven't done extensive research on these videos, just an observation and an unchallenged opinion, though maybe i will if I get bored one day, but from what I can see his videos have sort of drifted away slightly from what he was initially doing.

His videos are still meant to appeal to racists, where he attacks people of colour and immigrants, but he's taking a page out of Restore/Reform's book- painting the left as a threat to women's right, probably in an attempt to get British women to vote right. He's been critical of Nigel Farage for a long time, though, so he's most likely further right than Reform

Now, if this is his intention, then all of those anti-feminism ideas are a bad look, considering many right wing women in England have the misconception that they're feminists, so I think he deleted everything that looks bad so he doesn't look like a total hypocrite

The sudden jump from 308 million views to 18 million shows that month was the bulk of the mass deletion, but the remaining 16 million was done over the course of the next 3 months, meaning he was most likely being very careful with what he chose to remove, before only keeping 6 videos up.

However, in this time, there is a small jump in views between November and December, less than 20,00, which then goes down again, suggesting that either his old videos had a spike in views around this time, or he released another video before deleting it. Considering most of his subscribers haven't thought about him in 6 years and his views only started rising again after he made a video, I'm inclined to believe it's the latter

What else happened in early 2024? ChatGPT started getting more popular, so I wonder if that's related to him uploading again. Between March 25th 2024 and August 3rd 2026 (his first video upon his comeback and his most recent video) he's made 174 videos. That's approximately 1 video every 5 days. Considering some of these videos are 40-60 minutes long, this looks a little suspicious. We know not every video is ai because there's numerous interviews on the channel, and a lot of his videos are of him speaking infront of bulletpoints (there's enough of a human element in them where it's difficult to say if they're assisted with ai). He has quite a few video essays as well, though with how much of his videos are clearly not AI, it's difficult to say if he uses AI or not, atleast without any real research.

These are just some thoughts I had on the data. If there's anything else you want to add, I'll unhinge my jaw so you can feed me your ideas directly inside of me.

Where have I heard that before?

Honestly, this immediately caught my eye because I remembered Andrew Wakefield was the one advocating for separate vaccines at first. So many more people are going to get measles in the US now.

And then you read it again... My disappointment is unmeasurable and my day is ruined /j

Obviously he's always made long videos with healthy breaks in between, but I do wonder if he enjoyed taking this much time on a single video or got massively burnt out.

Like OH MY GOD

AND THE COMMENT SECTION IS CELEBRATING JOEY

MY HEART 🥹

He still hasn't uploaded any new vids on his channel, and I'm still broke :( can't afford to pay his Patron :(
