Ahoy is like this. His videos are awesome though.

Whenever LEMMiNO does post though, the quality is so high that I'm astounded he finished it as quickly as he did.

[–] swag_money@lemmy.world 26 points 7 months ago

quality >>> quantity

YouTube was so much better when this was the norm.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 23 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I honestly prefer this tbh. Shows that the passion comes from making the videos they want rather than grinding to survive

[–] Cheskaz@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Yeah, a channel I follow has grown and pivoted from "making a video when they have a topic they care about", which was still quite frequent, to "scheduled biweekly videos on a topic interesting to the widest audience" and it's really killed the magic.

Like, their choice and I wish them well, but it's not for me anymore.

Sam O'Nella Academy four years ago but instead of six months it was three years.

MFW creators take the time to make better content instead of dumping out weekly garbage

[–] popcap200@lemmy.ml 21 points 7 months ago (1 children)

A new Ahoy video dropped recently!

At least yours posts. I've gotten into the bad habit of subscribing to dudes weeks or months before they fuck off into the nether never to be seen again.

[–] AToM_exe@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Summoning Salt.

[–] je_skirata@lemmy.today 8 points 7 months ago

I'm sad every time I find a well-made video, want to subscribe, then discover the video is two years old and the channel never uploaded anything else.

So long waiting, but the content is absolutely top tier.

[–] BreakDecks@lemmy.ml 7 points 7 months ago

This is why you should follow hundreds to thousands of niche, mostly-inactive YouTubers. Every day you'll get a couple new videos that only you and 17 other people will ever see, with content unlike anything anyone else is making, and if you're lucky the video might even be good too.

This was Mitten Squad. RIP you magnificent bastard

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Came here to see if anyone mentioned this. That one hurt. Only knew him via his videos, but I miss him. RIP you magnificent bastard indeed.

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

I'm a fan of the video game historian. I wish it was only 6 months between videos

6 months would be an improvement

[–] Adramis@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Settled went to weekly and I'm so hyped.

[–] MelodiousFunk@startrek.website 5 points 7 months ago

Engineer Guy went years between ~~books~~ uploads. I had to do a double take when he came up in my feed a few months ago.

[–] baatliwala@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Vsauce, the YT shorts he puts out aren't enough

[–] late_night@sopuli.xyz 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Gosu-sama, who makes Minecraft tutorials. These are some of my favorite videos even though there are only like 6 of them.

Not a "niche" youtuber, but that's how I feel about CoryxKenshin. Dude posts a video and then bounces for a year.

Melodysheep moment. Their content is simply amazing.

Peach cobbler just used up his yearly upload token on a fellow history YouTubers scandal 🥲

[–] Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It's been 9 months or so since contrapoints put anything out. I sometimes think the notifications aren't working and check. But alas she's just work shy.
