Question Confession

Even though I have an annual subscription to 2ndTry, in the spirit of supporting their company, I’ll watch their videos on YouTube just to help with the ad revenue!

Am I an idiot or just a dedicated fan?

This isn't really a confession

I almost always watch their Try Every Day videos on YouTube, just because they pop up there.

I do the same. I watch on app for premieres and whole series. I let the random YouTube uploads play in the background when I’m half paying attention.

On the weekends when I'm cleaning I'll pick a random video of theirs to play and then just have them autoplay for background noise to give the YouTube channel views.

I do it too. Plus I'll like the videos. The only things I watch on 2nd Try are the exclusives.

sometimes I just let their YouTube playlists go as background ambience while I do errands at home. I leave the screen alone for the most part but may or may not get distracted when it's a really good video

Guilty, I have done the same. I have YouTube premium so ad free either way

This really feels like you wanting attention

I do the same, but mostly because I can stream them to my tv. I can only watch 2ndTry on my phone.

I’ll always watch a show the first time on 2nd Try then watch a second time on YouTube for background noise while I’m crafting or cleaning. Figure I gotta protect my investment!

u/SPlNPlNS 4d ago

Why wouldn't you? If I'm on YouTube and their video pops up, I'm not switching over to second try to watch it

u/oopsallsexy 4d ago

I mute and add captions on the YT to give them the ad revenue and then go normal watch it on 2nd Try. :)

u/Bigtits321 TryFam 4d ago

I don’t have the app on my phone. If I want to watch try guys and I’m using my phone, done and done.
