So who's the most seemingly normal or wholesome detractor?
Brandood, Atlus, Meerkat, Sam, Tevin, Lefty & Logan, Piece of Peace, Agent Proper, Darksy Dephil, Lewdacris and to some extent ALT all seem like pretty normal guys doing this as a side hustle or a hobby. Considering that it is not very difficult to "detract" or criticize DSP, and the audience is by far the most "normie" audience of any lolcow I've followed, they can afford to restream or make edits that don't take much time and effort without going full SOK and sitting around in voice chats all day planning gay ops.
Being a "normal" detractor is very much in their best interest because all they have to do is stick to what their viewers like, not get into slap fights with spergs, avoid gay ops and simply follow their own advice.
I may be biased because I have listened to many hours of content from all of them but I just like entertainment-first content and they all have their own styles in delivering it. I don't mind them making money off of it unless I feel like I'm being clickbaited or taken advantage of and with darksydephil you really don't need to do that.
I don't mind them investing their free time in it if it means more entertainment for me. From what I have understood some of them work from home or have flexible schedules so if I was in their place and I knew that thousands of people would be entertained if I booted up a stream or edited together a video in my spare time - I would do it too. ALT is by far one of the most obsessive ones but he channels his autism in a productive way and is talented in creating interesting streams and if he can make some good money to support his family alongside his regular job then I'm all for it.
DarkSydePhil is a fascinating animal and many people have many things to say about him. If they try to be entertaining and funny I'll give them a chance. If they get mad and yell at him I'll understand because I feel the same way and DSP is the kind of guy who is a natural ragebaiter and a genuinely awful person (I miss PoP yelling at him to die).
I've bitched about Doody and Steve plenty in this thread so I'll save you the essay...
