For me its got to be the dude behind Healthygamergg. I just find his advice so ridiculous and just really dislike how he just seems so absolutely certain in what he says.

LTT... don't know why, just can't stand him...

[–] QuarterSwede@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I know why, he’s biased as hell and promotes the techbro culture.

[–] 0x4E4F@infosec.pub 4 points 10 months ago

Probably...

Maybe it's because I like problem solving, and his ”tips" (more like buying preferences) don't actually solve anything. They're mostly entry level stuff that I already know or something I'm completely not interested in, but he makes it sound like I can't live without that... whatever it is.

[–] bestusername@aussie.zone 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I honestly couldn't name anyone I don't like because I simply avoid stuff I don't like. I almost exclusively only watch channels I'm subscribed too.

Why are you watching people you don't like? You're literally giving money and attention to them by watching.

[–] Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

How would you know you don't like someone if you've never seen any of their content?

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 14 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

If they’re a “YouTuber” I hate them. But to be more specific, ANY person that post videos of them watching videos is a fucking asshole.

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 10 points 10 months ago

Ones who made videos that should've been text articles.

[–] derphurr@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

MatPat and his prolific reading of bad voiceover scripts. Style Theorists? Really? How many millions of $$ are enough?

[–] moonsnotreal@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago

I used to like Game Theory in like 2015. I think they went downhill in quality after Ronnie died.

[–] itsgroundhogdayagain@lemmy.ml 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I have a 9 year old. Every YouTube channel is annoying. Rebecca Zamolo is really annoying. The Daily Dose of Internet guy, his voice is pretty annoying. There are tons of people who try to copy Mr. Beast that are just painful to watch.

[–] wjrii@kbin.social 6 points 10 months ago

My kid is ten. I don't like most of them, but the ones I hate are the one who punctuate their prosaic Minecraft and Roblox adventures with blood-curdling screams.

[–] Overarch3784@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

Oh god, why do I have eyes and ears :(

[–] UrbonMaximus@feddit.uk 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

MrBeast - just seems dodgy

[–] Asudox@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago
[–] Pons_Aelius@kbin.social 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What I really hate is an account that posts a ridiculous number of youtube links.

[–] GreyTechnician@lemm.ee 0 points 10 months ago

Ah man, those are the worst!

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 10 months ago

I don't know their names; I don't like them enough to even know that much about them. I either block the channel so I never see it again, or I avoid them by recognizing their thumbnails. Generally it isn't a single tuber I hate, but a theme or style. Like 90% of gaming videos with their bullshit titles, clickbait thumb nails and complete lack of real content in the videos themselves that post 30+ videos a week.

[–] HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Anyone who says like and subscribe is dead to me

[–] backhdlp@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's literally everyone tho

[–] Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

Whistlin Diesel is the only person I've ever blocked on YouTube. He's one of those people you just don't like from the first moment but aren't sure why.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

It'd be far easier to list out the ones I like and why. I hate some because I don't like the way they speak, what they present, how they present it, and many other things.

I'm not going to write any more out though. It'd be an essay either way.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Pretty much any of them that lean heavily into a redneck personality. Especially if it's a completely fake redneck personality.

Whistling diesel, cleetus McFarland, demolition ranch, zipties&biasplies, and hundreds of others whose name I can't be bothered to remember.

[–] p_diablo@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I'm pretty sure I thought whistling diesel and cleetus mcfarland were the same person...

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

Destin from SmarterEveryDay

(It's a joke I swear!)

[–] Damaskox@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago (3 children)

This isn't about "can't stand" though.

I recall one YouTuber, whose - I recall - voice dropped on every sentence he spoke that went towards the end of it, and when the sentence finishes, he ended up in pretty much the same voice tune, on every sentence.
It wasn't annoying but it bothered me a little nevertheless.

(No I don't recall who it was)

[–] Electric_Druid@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Hate to say, as someone who also hates this very specific thibg, like 25% of them are the same way. I call it the "journalist cadence" because news people do the same thing.

[–] ElleChaise@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

Atozy maybe? Or Penguinz0, or perhaps Chills?

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

The inflection of Food Wishes guy can be hard to unhear at times.

[–] weeeeum@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Simon whistler. He actually runs like 2 dozen YouTube channels and he's basically just a narrator. I can't stand him because of how confidently he talks in his videos while being egregiously incorrect. Like one example is why Canadians are so "polite". His explanation was that Canadians had to cooperate and live with the indigenous peoples to survive but if you know a lick of history that could not be fucking further from the truth and is completely idiotic.

[–] DeathWearsANecktie@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Boogie2988. Dude has had problems in his life but it doesn't excuse the fact that he's a massive narcissist and general scumbag.

[–] mojo@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Healthygamersgg is a licensed therapist, how is his advice ridiculous?

[–] GreyTechnician@lemm.ee -3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

The guy just appears so confident and certain in absolutely everything he says and acts like he has the answer to all problems related to mental health. His advice doesn't resonate at all with me and his advice just sounds like he is talking from his ass 99% of the time.

[–] mojo@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Because it's not opinions coming from him. It's coming from the entire field of psychology and therapy. That's why he's licensed. This is like arguing with a science teacher because you don't like what they're teaching.

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

The real question is, which ones can I stand? Probably anything in the Whistlerverse is okay and even amazing, but other than that and GameXplain, the fandoms (GiancarloParimango11, ProtoMario, etc.), the bait (Matthew Santoro, Thoughty2, etc.), the quality (GameTheory, College Humor, etc.), and the sheer shallowness (Darkmatter2525, How It Should Have Ended, etc.) are too widespread.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Epic NPC Man. Their show is great, but now when I pay video games I can't help but see their characters in the NPC.

Greg the garlic farmer does not belong in the fallout series.

[–] spittingimage@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I don't remember they guy's name, but he was a Minecraft Youtuber who liked to shout "Let's go!" at the end of EVERY SENTENCE HE SPOKE. I gave him ten minutes of my attention and that was being generous.

[–] hal_5700X@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

YongYea - He haves the most milquetoast takes about video games and his Cyberpunk 2077 review was so bad he deleted it off of Youtube.

EDIT also he's a corporate shill.

[–] mojo@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

This dude just casually said milk toast in his comment like it's a normal word

[–] sour@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

louis gantus: baking aint shit guy

he sounds ironic and not ironic at the same time

[–] pinkyprincessfiona@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I hate one that keeps popping out on my suggestions, which is this chick, buying cheap dresses from pinterest and showing them on her channel, but what really grinds my gears, is that she buys shit that is obviously, too fucking small for her size, and the type of dresses, are not meant for her body type... and its a never ending thing....

That guy sucks, I agree

[–] atro_city@fedia.io -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I couldn't name you a single youtuber.

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] atro_city@fedia.io 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Dunno if you can read, but the thread is literally a question.

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You answered a different question

[–] atro_city@fedia.io 1 points 10 months ago

I see, you have no reading comprehension. No problem. That happens.
