Kind of a trend, the amount of youtubers who i had loved but their content became generic after gaining popularity is quite a bit, most drastic one being mrwhosetheboss, his uniqueness went down faster than ~~MH27~~ MH17

Dave2D - Not a huge creator, but he lived in a van and made videos mocking other van-lifers who did the glamping thing and only showed the positive side of van life, not the negative side where you poo in a bucket and live in fear of a crackhead breaking into your car while youre asleep in it.

One of the glam-van-life couples broke up and he made a video publically mocking them. Then the girl killed herself. There was a huge shitstorm in the vanlife community and he ended up deleting almost all his content. Now he mostly does fantasy artwork livestreams.

I don't know what are you talking about.... Isn't he a gadget-related youtuber??

Haha I was like "that Dave2D? Something's definitely not adding up!"

I think OP miswrote the name.

I didnt realize there was another Dave2D on youtube.

This is the one I was referring to: https://www.reddit.com/r/VanLife/comments/mg2rtv/what_happened_to_dave2d/

Wait, when did this happen? I've been subscribed for years now and all I've ever seen on his channel are laptop and phone reviews.
