Drifting away from big YouTubers?

There's definitely a mix for me. I do still love the larger Youtubers I did before but I'm finding so many smaller ones I'm really enjoying too.
 
I watch a mixture of both, but yea a lot of big youtubers that used to be just their silly self now can't make one video without advertising a crapload of things.
 
To be fair...if I was making a living off of Youtube I would advertise things too. I mean it's how they pay their bills.

Before I started my channel, I watched mostly really big YouTubers (all vloggers). Once I started my channel, joined YTTalk, and engaged on Twitter, I started finding and subscribing to lots of smaller channels. I saw how much creativity there is out there and the extent to which a lot of the big YouTubers phone it in and care only about selling their products. Now, there are only about 4 or 5 big YouTubers I consistently go back to as they do keep their content fresh.

Have y0u had a similar experience?

Yeah, actually you're right... I think I watch more small youtube channels rather than bigger youtube channels these days...
 
Yea I realize that and I think it's OK but some youtubers I've watched literally just advertise in everything they do (tweets etc) and just kind of makes you lose the connection you felt to them when they actually posted about "personal" stuff. bleh idk
 
I still am subscribed to a lot of bigger youtubers but I'm also subscribed to a hell of a lot of small youtuber too :) I just find people I like and watch them :)
 
I have found that I enjoy the smaller channels more and more because they seem to be more creative with their content and they are also not afraid to try new things. The big youtubers seem to be stuck with the type of content they have and it seems like if they try and stray from that then they lose a lot of their fan base which is strange to me.
 
As of right now, I only watch a few big youtube channels regularly (mainly Markiplier and Vlogbrothers). My story is pretty consistent with everyone else's, but I started out watching only big youtubers, and as I've gotten more 'in' to youtube, I've discovered smaller channels that I love. I think that's because when I started watching youtube videos, the first videos I saw were those made by successful youtubers, ergo, I was content to watch those and not seek out other less known channels.
 
I'm not interested in the big YouTubers because their content is boring to me. Rarely do I find any of them to be funny. I just don't care about listening to someone's personal life and bad jokes.
