You will notice that there are two entries each for Robert and for Drinker- Robert has two twitter accounts and Drinker has his two youtube accounts. I did not attempt any sort of data harvesting from any other forms of social media like rumble, bitchute, gab, etc. I also didn't engage with patreon totals, or the estimated amounts of money socialblade gave for their youtubes. Estimates on his finances have been looked at by others in this thread. I was primarily interested in the reach of the individuals, and while I have not been able to satisfy that interest, I did glean some information from my scrub. So this is not really a deep dive at all.
I made some graphs of some of the data that stood out to me. Obviously, Robert is far more engaged on Twitter than he is on Youtube. In theory, all 6 entities use social media as a major part of their income. However, as we have heard from Robert himself, he doesn't treat his social media presence like a business. We know that he is a prolific tweeter, and this will be demonstrated again, but he refuses to try to leverage it into more exposure for his channel and means of income. RLM is clearly a work twitter account, and I did not get data for their personal accounts because 1. I don't actually know who any of the individuals are, and 2. I don't think that it would add anything to the dataset. I think that having the business account stand on its own as is representative enough, as Robert's verified account is supposedly his business account and then he has a personal account. The others do a mix of personal and business on their twitters.
We all know that Robert created and then abandoned his personal account, Bobchipman_1981 as it was not giving him the asspats that he desired. He has a much wider audience on his the_moviebob account, but as numerous screenshots show, he has abysmal user interaction with him. He did not get his coveted blue checkmark on the new account, which as documented elsewhere grants him better control over his interaction with other users. How much his follower count is residual from people who followed him and forgot about it, purchased followers or actual fans is not within the scope of post. However, I think that the follower count on the abandoned one is much closer to his actual fancount.
The graphs created look at users' youtube and twitter subscribers/followers, the amount of uploads/tweets, how they use twitter when they tweet, and how much they interact with both sites. I did not graph the average views per subscriber for youtube as it is unrealistic to think that only his subscribers view his material.
If I was to actually devote more than a little effort to this, I would try to get more information of average upload lengths, like/dislike counts for youtube, like/retweet counts for twitter, patreon information, and then similar date for other commonly used alternate social media sites.
Robert interacts far more with twitter than he does youtube, at a whopping 68 tweets per day on average. followed by Styx at 29 tweets per day. RLM comes in last with an average of 1 tweet per day.
Robert has a terribly low subscriber amount on both sites, even compared to the lolcows. Even on his main platform of twitter, his follower count is completely blown away by RLM, which is a purely business account and tweets at an average of 1 tweet a day. On youtube, the actual vehicle for his income generation, his subscriber count is second last, only just edging out Greenwald (who uses numerous other social media sites, as does Styx and to a limited extent, Dore).
In terms of Average Views per upload, he beats out Styx and Greenwald.
Styx and Jimmy Dore interact with youtube the most, being the only ones with an average upload per day amount greater than 1, at 1.5 and 1.3 respectively. However, both of them generally make multiple uploads each day they upload, and these are usually shorter videos. This is why I would like to get an average upload length for each user.
In terms of actual content, Dore and Greenwald focus on politics, Styx does a mix of politics, occult and some garden stuff, RLM and Drinker are like Robert in media reviews, and Razorfist does video games, media review and politics. A deeper dive into what content gets the most views would be interesting as well but is beyond what I feel like doing here.
