If this truly is the case, and Dev commits to this decision, then I will give him begrudging applause for doing something smart for a change.Dev is wanting to shift from political analysis to Drama commentary based on the success of the Pirate Software video. Dev thinks this is where he will make most of his money from for now on.
The sad truth is that Dev attracted a political audience that he disagrees with. He did so by the fact that his initial videos primarily criticized a shared ideological enemy in the far/progressive left. But as his poltics became more known, and the political pendulum began to switch, his clashing with his audience was growing fatal. It's a sadly common thing in political channels that don't IMMEDIATELY underline the ideology of the channel.
If Dev wanted to continue his Political analysis he either needed to remove ALL political ambiguity in a STRUCTURED video, (So No sip/stream shit) or win a public political debate against a competent opponent representing his audience's opinion in a fair and unbiased arena. That he ducked out entirely, while disappointing, is understandable. And probably the closest we'll ever get to an admission of defeat.
As for his new focus on Drama videos? Eh...
Different waters for sure. Setting aside the Red Ocean nature of that field, news moves really quickly and Dev's habit of "waiting" will hurt him here. It was... tolerable, for political analysis because of how slow the political and legal system is, but dramatube is another story.
