I honestly don't know why this is a thing? Is it a thing?

Outside individual random comments here or there on the pronunciations being wrong, I think the internet in general understands regional/international accents, especially in regards to English being the most spoken language, is a thing.

Like, Dom Noble has apologized plenty of times for not being able to pronounce words and names correctly, especially non-English words/names.

Intentional or not, the Youtubers aren't tricking fans or lying or being devious? They're just not pronouncing it to your liking or being as professional as you want them to be. But like...IDK man, that's a you thing.

I'm not going to leave long corrections on a Jarvis Johnson video about going into the Meta-verse because he possibly on purpose mispronounced some word. Nor am I going to wonder if he did it on purpose or on accident or if he just didn't know the correct pronunciation?

Like, IDK man, even if they purposely pronounce a word incorrectly to get engagement from comments of, "Actually, it's pronounced, XXX"....and what about it??? They're just trying to get engagement (if true, but honestly I feel like this is one of those things where the percentage of mispronunciations being intentional is a lot lower than OP thinks).

IDK man, am I missing something here?

I think it's worth noting that people with learning disabilities exist as well.

Like one of my friends is dyslexic, if they're reading a new word they almost always get it wrong because letters and their brain don't mix well, hell even after they hear the way it's meant to say there's still a good chance they'll pronounce it wrong after because their brain latches onto how they first heard it. It's not malice or deliberate trolling, they just find words hard. It's easy to imagine that many youtubers could be dyslexic too as it's very common and you can't tell who has it by looking at them or how they present themselves, nor is it something they have to or want to disclose.

I think it's very weird for OP to be ascribing deliberate intent toward something that could have any number of explanations.
