  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

I think that's down to audience. Niche to the terminally online? Probably not. Niche to your average person? Yeah probably.

Then all of youtube is niche except maybe mrbeast

I'd say Mrbeat would be pretty niche in China or something like that.

How on earth have I never seen a Mr Beast video? YT has never even suggested it that I can remember, and I've been on the lookout for a few months ever since I heard about him on--and this is peak irony--the radio.

I forgot he blew up in the last couple years. Been watching his channel since it wasn't very well known.

Dude made a 2 hours video on the "OOF" sound. (And it was glorious)

The meme is just as good without the word niche. You don't need to enforce meme accuracy on the internet. Everyone will survive if we talk about YouTubers who aren't niche
