    Before anyone gets really bummed, his channel’s not going away. He’s just taking a much deserved break from ten years of weekly uploads (which is an absolutely insane record considering the quality of his content).

      Jesus… I watch his content and never realized he did weekly! That’s incredible with his quality of content.

    He really is a diamond in a sea of shitty YouTube channels.

        I don’t know about not enough recognition, there’s plenty of awesome channels with only 1K subscribers. He has 2M subscribers and 1M views per 30 min+ video about random old appliances. That amount of recognition is impressive.

        I love technology connections too though.

      Yeah, it’s one of those sad but beautiful things. I’m glad he went this route instead of trying to find some way to phone it in or something.

    Man, I thought he was quitting for something that happened but it’s just a (well deserved) break, good for him.

    I hope he takes all the rest he deserves and starts uploading again whenever he feels like it (even switching to an irregular schedule would be fine, most channels that keep a weekly one end up getting stale at some point and the fact he’s been doing it for ten years with this level of quality is amazing)
