        Are you calling me young because I don’t care about YT personalities? Also according to wiki, all he does are 'let’s play’s and watching others play games when I could play them myself is, IMHO, dumb as fuck.

          Nah I’m not, no need to be rude about it. Just saying it’s quite surprising seeing he isn’t as ubiquitous as I thought, he was like the YouTube personality back in the day.

            Some people just don’t really care about popular YouTubers unless it matches their interests somehow. I only heard about PewDiePie and MrBeast last year (the former because of Linux), and I still have zero interest in either.

              I mean I don’t either, but I know of them simply because they’re huge. It’s kinda like trends or fads, even if you don’t care for it you’ll eventually hear of it.

            I didn’t conflate age with faux-celebrity knowledge or lack thereof. I don’t follow famous people because their lives are completely irrelevant to anything I’ll ever do.

      Correct. Also the star of the Iron Lung movie adaptation that just came out.

      I’m not a fan or anything, I just think it’s a neat bit of trivia.
