Idk where this upheaval always comes from when a Youtuber decides to not work for a while. If Dan Smithson in 69 Boredom-Boulevard, Unspectacular-City, Illinois decides to take a break from freelance-work, no one bats an eye. But if a Youtuber does it, everybody loses their minds!

I don't really get why some YouTubers keep a schedule to begin with. I'm fine with them coming out with content whenever they have something, it doesn't have to be the same time of the week every week. It's not TV, I'm fine with waiting.

Yes, most who use this approach usually burn themselves out extremely quickly. It's testament to Tom and his content that he has been able to keep this going for 10 years.
