I love YouTube bots
(the only video of that channel is "Woman cries over dog being put down (HILARIOUS)")
Oh LMAO
I just started watching this channel a few months ago, and still haven't seen much more than a few videos here and there but loved what all I saw. Was sad to see the title, but watching it... Good for him. Besides, there should be plenty to tide me over for a lifetime or two
There are at least 520 videos! I've seen all of them. What a wonderful person he is. Have a great time.
Outside the primary series, Lateral is okay, and Two Of These People Are Lying is a bit better, but Citation Needed is fantastic.
And following along his mates are also great too. Matt Gray has recently started his own series that are similar to Tom's videos.
A dream job is still a job. As someone who has been in the work force for 11+ years in a pretty cushy gig, this has never rang more true.
He's right. Stop making videos, everyone.
Pictures were never meant to move! They have played us for absolute fools!
Good for him. He deserves a break and a private life. Will miss the content, but im happy Lateral stays, it has quickly worked my way into my weekly podcast rotation.
The closing scene to this 10 year epic channel was a damn near cinematic masterpiece.

A YouTuber made a video every week for 10 years. This is what happened to his channel

All Things Tom Scott

An unofficial community dedicated to all things Tom Scott.
Rules
1. Professionalism
Tom holds a high standard for his content, and we should maintain that as his fans. There isn't a strict definition for this, but in general, just use common sense and be polite. Disagreements are fine, but be respectful and keep it strictly to the topic at hand -- no personal attacks, no "straw man"-ing or any other bad-faith agruing. Bigotry will be banned without hesitation.
2. Relevancy
This community is about all things Tom Scott. Of course, that's its name. But specifically, it's about Tom Scott the YouTube channel, and associates. That includes friends like the TechDif crew. Outside content featuring or about Tom is also welcome.
What is out of scope is Tom Scott the person. Anything digging into his personal life or history is strictly prohibited. That's a big part of why he wanted the subreddit taken down, so let's show that we can be better than that.
3. Moderator discretion
Without trying to list out every bad thing you can do, again, just use common sense and ask yourself if Tom would approve. If Tom isn't likely to approve, neither are the mods, even if the rules don't explicitly prohibit it. Even if nothing is going wrong yet, we may also preemptively stop conversations that look like they're going to a bad place. I'm not trying to micromanage y'all, I just want to keep every nice and tidy so Tom doesn't get upset with us.
