Google made a conscious and highly successful effort to revamp the way YouTube comments work so they're now much more positive and not a toxic pit.

There are definitely some channels I follow where the comments feel like being part of a nice comm!

[(Anonymous)]

For sure, the comment sections for some videos and channels can be very pleasant and a lot of fun. I have a similar experience with other places like Twitter and Tumblr. There can be a lot of awfulness and chaff. But there can also be good people and groups in them that make using them worth it for me most of the time.

[sparklywalls]

This doesn't surprise me tbh. I find that if you're into some of the more niche and/or genuine hobbyist sort of stuff, the communities on all the platforms are overwhelmingly positive overall. I mean you still get some that can be hive-mind like in their opinions (I think of a few fashion/make-up/whatever subs on reddit) but ultimately they're still not anywhere near as bad/toxic as e.g. mainstream nerd spaces.

[(Anonymous)]

I've certainly found this in few of the hobby-based videos like lolita fashion and doll modding videos.

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed. Most of them are pretty chill. My favorites are on the mindfulness channels where everyone’s wishing one another good will.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I think Tumblr and Youtube comments are waaay more chill than used to be. I don't think either deserve the rep as the worst place on the interent anymore.

[(Anonymous)]

I find myself quite often looking at the comments. I like seeing the commentary and the jokes people make. And even when the comments are off they're usually off in an hilarious way, like they were written by a child.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, I would say roughly around 2018 comments on YT videos generally became less quippy one liners or people just making toxic ass comments. I would say around pandemic times the comments section of most videos I watch became either comments complimenting the creator/video or comments carrying on more conversation/thought into the subject.

I think it helps that many spaces are hobbyist communities so people have found spaces to show/give support as well as receive it. A lot less about making the most outrageous/meta comment to get a lot of likes or replies.

Giving a failed project a second chance is a nice thought, but from a marketing standpoint, a terrible idea that's not likely to find many people willing to put the necessary money behind it. Playing off the name recognition of a failure (or a project that never got off the ground and may not have any significant name recognition) looks like a very poor gamble to investors.

I don’t necessarily do this every time I rewatch something like that. But I occasionally do, so I get this. I like shows with story arcs, but I’ve never been crazy about multi-parter episodes. Some are done well, and I’ll always rewatch each episode. But others feel unnecessarily stretched out.

I haven’t played Triangle Strategy yet, but I agree on the basis that Yuzu deserves better than the treatment she got.

So there are no longer any "Dear Negative Reader" letters out there? Because there's something so satisfying about the schadenfreude you feel watching an idiotic, egocentric author basically set their own career on fire.

NS, NF, etc.
