I’ll admit I’m a little lost/down, it came out of nowhere! Over the years he’s produced an endless stream of genuinely interesting videos. I can’t really think of any other video hosts that can make a wide range of topics sound so interesting.
Probably I’m just scared of change…
On the flip side though, I’m really happy that he’s decided his personal happiness is more important, and has decided to focus on people close to him.
What are your thoughts?
You can be happy for the person making the choice that they are making, but also feel bad/sad about the effect it has on you.
I don’t want Tom to commit his entire life to YouTube. I respect him as a person and want him to do what’s best for him, but I also really enjoyed his content and will miss his regular high quality uploads. One of the first things I’d do when I got home from that first work/school day of the week would be to watch the latest Tom Scott video. I’ve massively dialed back my YouTube watching in recent years, but I still always watch his content.
One silver lining is we might get more technical difficulties.
