Making light of someone else’s trauma, and following it up by insulting their intelligence, is a pretty shitty take.

I can’t stand vtubers. The entire concept is super cringe.

I get why people might not wanna show their faces, or have to hassle with making wardrobe and/or makeup choices for every video. So just do a voiceover, or at the very most have a cartoon version of the character you’re playing your channel as.

But this micro industry of making motion tracked 3d models (complete with (sigh…) “jiggly bits” is just so over the top, beyond the pale levels of cringe imo.

Even worse than “I’m so random/penguin of d000m” type cringe. I’m sure some can make good content, but I simply cannot stand looking at it.

It could work as a one off bit or something I guess, but when someone is known by an animated model I immediately look elsewhere.

Most are either very autistic, or trans. Usually those are some of my favorite types of content. I assume the trans ones are just insecure about their passability, or maybe just insecure about their looks in general for to whatever circumstances, which I can understand. I wish they weren’t made to feel that way, but I definitely get it.

But just knowing they had to get a model made for them (unless they’re generic on top of the other cringe), and they’re sitting right there with motion tracking cameras while still hiding just drives part of me insane.

It bothers me in the same way that I first noticed during the original run of “Muppet Babies” (in the 80s- yeah I’m old) and the nanny was on screen, but you never saw more than the bottom of her dress(/skirt?) down. Or on Peanuts and the adults just talk as “wah wah wahhhh” even though the kids understood them just fine. Or any hidden character in anything really (Cobra Commander, Dr Claw, etc).

One part of me gets it, but the much bigger part just cannot stand it.

Kid AI slop channels - they’re super low effort, kids love them and they’re about as overstimulating as possible. And worse still every other recommended video is one of these of kids YouTube.

Why waste your energy in hating on them / thinking of them. If they are non controvertial and you don’t have to “warn” people about their shenenigans, why bother with their content? Just block them and move on.

Weird question. I would say some annoying game reviewer to whom I neither remember their name nor the game being reviewed…

I can’t stand the “GaMe ThEoRy” guy. He’s insufferable

anyone that uses AI is garbage

Hazzor, I love his ‘let me tell you a story’-kind of playthroughs of some of my favorite games. He really should be voicing / narrating a nature documentary with his butter smooth voice

Edit: just read the question proper, least favorite… not most, in that case I do not have an answer.

Townsends. They do 18th century cooking and living history.

Luneist. I like his content but about a month ago he started leaning hard into self-promotion.

Quentin Reviews (Took to Tumblr to whine about the fact that people didn’t want to spend 8 hours of their lives watching a video about Grumpy Cat)

Down the Rabbit Hole (His SCP Foundation Video was straight up just reading what they posted on their website)

I dislike Miniminuteman, i just dont like his style and humor but most importantly I find his videos kind of pointless circlejerk, they do not target anyone who actually believes in pseudohistory they do not try to teach or convince them of something else, it just makes fun of them. He even discourages any actual action besides that. There’s nothing malicious about it or anything but idk just think he should be doing a lot more and to a higher standard
