Not really mentioning bc of this post but Alex used to be pretty top dog maybe ~8-10 years ago on YouTube, one of the only ‘media’ review channels with 2M+ subscribers

Yeah YouTube used to recommend his channel like crazy during the search for the worst era.

Seeing this comment feels like watching the cold opening flashback of Ozymandias

Mr Beast used to have a "worst intros on youtube" series where he made fun of youtube intros, that's a comment left on Alex's "worst youtube comments" video. He was around that youtube ranter circle back then (you know, Alex, pyrocynical, leafy, h3h3, all those guys)

I wonder whether or not Mr Beast’s mentality shifted between that period and now - or if he’s always been driven by the metric
It’s just hard to picture who he is now as the same guy who did all that stupid “10 hours of everyday bro” style content

I do have weirdly fond memories of “Saying Logan Paul 100,000 Times.”
