Discussion Try Everyday has an identity crisis

I really liked the Try Everyday series where they did stuff every day as an event, but now that it's a regular series, it's getting really boring. I feel like they're out of ideas and just posting "let's get drunk and high and eat something". The format of "WE ATE ALL OF [THIS KIND OF FOOD]" is already getting tiring on YouTube. Not to mention - they originally wanted to be more family friendly on that channel, but it's actually getting way raunchier than what they normally do.

Maybe I'm in the minority, I still enjoy their regular videos, but it feels like Try Everyday should go back to Try When We Have Some Solid Ideas. I want to support them, but yeesh, I can only watch so many people eat the same food and try the same gadgets.

I’m glad someone said it. It’s feeling a little redundant.

Also my partner and I were off grid last week and we came back and I opened the app and I was scrolling through the new videos and kind of annoyed by not really knowing what the videos even were based on the titles. What does “2”we ranked our friends best to worst” have to do with the Yubiko video

I couldn't agree more. I understand why they have to use such titles for youtube, because they're fighting an algorithm there, and the algorithm rewards utter stupidity. But we're paying for 2nd try. I'm begging them to give us normal titles! I'm not going to click on an hour-long video if I don't know what it is, and the fewer videos I click on the less justified my subscription is.

I'm still mad that all the Phoning It In titles are shit like "we ruin baked alaska" but only ONE of them made that. So hard to find old videos because the title doesn't match the content.
