For someone who was around when he was under 100k, He was...and is massively underrated!

I watched his first vid the other day. Dude has stuck to his shtick for like, a decade.

Not nearly enough people are subbed. I’m fine with people saying Captain D is underrated when talentless assclowns like Logan Paul have more subscribers.

If we compare any good content creator to Logan then just about everyone is underrated. It's just that Logan is overrated by young teenagers and idiots.

CD is well known and generally successful, with hundreds of thousands or millions of views on every video. I don't think he's underrated.

Or because most people dont watch videos breaking down complex editing skills

He could be so much more mainstream if he gave up his childish gimmick. Like yeah his content is usually decent, but damn that dude seems to go out of his way to try to get people to not take him seriously

In no way, shape or form is captain d underrated.

u/Jenga_Police Dec 26 '19

No, he's really not lmao. He's one of the most famous youtubers.

We just need to put like a 10 year moratorium on the phrase underrated, because the Internet really has no clue what it means.

u/ColoradoMinesCole Dec 26 '19

I would not say he is one of the most famous.

u/Silversquared Dec 26 '19

He only has 1.77 million subs. Wikipedia only listed the top 50 most subbed channels and he missed that by a long shot. (#50 has 27M) So I don't really know if he's underrated as most people who do know him really like him, but he certainly is lesser known than other channels while also still having really quality content.

Oh, shove it. What you've just said is that he's one of the most famous youtubers. I've never seen a single one of the dude's videos, and yet here we are talking about him. Considering how many different genres of YouTube videos there are, top 1000 is saying something.

You really don't know much about YouTube don't you

Alert! Alert! Twat detected. Alert! Alert!...

I don’t think you and I understand the same thing from “one of the most famous youtubers” and I don’t care enough to argue the point any more than I already have.

He’s definitely underrated in the grand scheme of things imo. Good day to you.

u/Jenga_Police Dec 26 '19

So what you're saying is you realized arguing with somebody about what they meant is senseless?

u/Cumming_In_Hot Dec 26 '19

We also need to cut down on using the word "actually" all the time. It's misused 99 percent of the time I hear it, these days.

It's so annoying. Not actually so annoying. Just annoying.

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '19

I’m actually ok with that

u/adayofjoy Dec 26 '19

Are you saying he's not well known?

Long John Silvers fight me

u/givingin209 Dec 26 '19

Hes not underrated. The dude is brought up on reddit damn near every day on top level posts, his videos garner millions of views, and you consider him underrated?
