I keep telling myself I’m gonna shut up about watcher on this app but oh well here we are

Just a few of the comments from YouTube that amused me.

A total collection of the Watcher stats (from YouTube comments)

The way I like gasped when I saw their new video posted lmao but here’s my opinion:

*ryan: “we did a really bad job of explaining the reasoning behind this transition” lmao aka “we saw all of you complaining that it was just because we wanted to fund Steven’s adventures”

Overall I’m happy with this solution tbh I’m glad they’ve found a way to keep having extra income from the website because they did need that they just handled it in the worst way possible

I love that we found a compromise

(They’ve almost reached 100k followers lost)

Watcher: I went from instant support, to feeling cheated within a few hours.

I paid right away. I cancelled a few of my patreon memberships and subscribed. Quickly.... whoops.

I believed them when they said they wanted to make television content. I was excited at the idea of having a Watcher app on my TV. My family loves watching them and I was excited to support them starting their own platform. I signed up right away.

Then...

I see no TV app. Wasn't that the whole point? To be on TV?

Well they must have a phone app as most people watch YT on their phone. Nope.

Then I figure it's in the works. I go to the help article on their site. No where do they say this is in the works. Just "meh, try opening a browser on your tv.... good luck to you."

Now I feel lied to.

They said they wanted TV level content, but it doesn't seem like they have any intention viewers watching it on TV... wait... or phone. So, this is curated to be best viewed on Desktop... they just said they wanted to move away from internet shows.

Now I feel played.

Then I look at their privacy policy. They're using the Vimeo platform to feed videos to their site.

Oh. So its not their own platform like they claimed. They're not building anything. It's a Vimeo channel with a paywall.

Now I feel used.

International viewers feel used.

Patreon members who paid ahead feel used.

The people who want to pay them as artists feel used.

It's not that people don't want to support. We do. I signed up for a year immediately. I want to pay them. Happily. But it feels like they're lying to us.

I don't even want to watch the free stuff anymore.
