YouCuber argument thread

[Eastrod]

I think JPerm has earned his credibility and part of that credibility is the subs/views. As a new cuber, that is what I was looking for in a tutorial because I knew nothing about cubing and wanted to learn from someone I could trust to teach me the best methods. You see a guy with a lot of subs and a good reputation and that’s where you gravitate.

Now that I have gone down the cubing rabbit hole, I have subbed to quite a few cubing channels - Tingman and Cubehead are entertaining and I watched a bunch of Phil and Cyoubx’s videos after seeing them on Tingman’s charity stream.

One thing I really like about the youCuber community is that the content creators are typically all good friends, give shoutouts or collaborate so it is easy to find more channels to watch!

some replies:
1. speedcubeshop drags on a little bit in new cube videos, and the cubicle is much more time-efficient. I would prefer some other unboxing than a scs new cube video.
2. cubemaster does vids on news I think, and I also made one about the 11 m pro and qiyi 6x6.
3. Tingman is overrated IMO, for entertainment, there are other better channels
4. I agree about jr

you forgot the last reply...

i guess this thread turned into J Perm simps vs actual fair cubers who give others channels a chance

I think Brian Sun is one of the best sources for advanced F2L algs and "OO" last layer algs

That's both a strawman and a personal attack fallacy. Impressive to be so illogically persuasive, while simultaneously shifting blame and whining about how everyone's wrong.

I like JPerm because he usually never tells me to subscribe

I have been seeing a trend in his videos though, in some vids he says "Subscribe for more"

 

[ZB2op]

Also J Perm is seriously overrated

Jperm is the best.

Yeah it does get obnoxious hearing youtubers saying subscribe all the time *ahem Cubing Encoded*

Imo Cubing Encoded's style has just gotten really old and annoying. He's playing to the clickbait-y and younger kid side of YouTube, which for me gets old quick. I've never liked YouTubers like that.

I just skip the first 20 seconds of his vids, and now it's just my reflex.

lol I do the same thing

At this point I don't even watch his vids because I know the thumbnail is a lie. One time the thumbnail was "Why I never learned full OLL" and I was like yoyo, Ima watch this. Then it was a reaction vid with like 5 seconds of it about what it said it was

Yeah it'll be like "I solved an examinx!!!!!!!!!!!!! *arrow* *arrow* *suprised face* *crazy background*" and then he'll be looking at reddit where one video is some random person solving an examinx

Cube Solve Hero is annoying with that too. Well I guess his channel did grow quickly so it worked.

Yeah, I don't know how much potential his channel really has, since his platform is basically serious, high level reviews, but he isn't all that good at reviewing cubes(and he does fun edits)

I thought his target audience was solely entertainment videos

lost in words? I believe the word you are looking for is "Clickbait".

ikr i wish he changed at least a bit.

I was just giving a specific example of his clickbait
